I drove my family by a deadly accident where an idiot driver killed two pedestrians, one a child that we knew from day care, and permanently injured her younger brother. All I could do was get out of the way of all the ambulances and cops flying up
Nightmares for a while. I wish we had driven by a few minutes earlier but I wonder how much use I would've been. Probably not much, I froze. my wife had to snap me out of it to get the f out of the way. People like Kellington are different and better.
Summer while home between my frosh and soph year at Cuse we were playing poker at my buddy's house which is in a very rural area and about 2 miles off a main road. We all had a few drinks but nothing crazy. One of our crew was an EMT and around 1 am we hear an awful sound from what we thought was the main road. My buddy the EMT immediately jumps up and said it sounded like a wreck.
So we hopped in his truck and not a quarter mile after we got to the main road is a Honda civic with the entire front end mashed in from hitting a telephone pole.
Passenger had been ejected and driver was wandering from adrenaline but massive injuries and being full of alcohol. Both survived but driver lost his right arm elbow down and passenger was paralyzed from waste down. Still get nightmares from that one. Also- they were going 110 when they hit the pole and also were airborne.
