  • Heinous wreck: dash cam to the rescue

    Last week I witnessed the worst accident I have ever seen (yet). In short, a drunk driver played pinball with his truck the ball and 4 or 5 other cars the bumpers.

    Remember that dash cam I got a few months back? Guess where it happened to be pointing...

    After the police arrived -- which took not long at all -- I showed my footage to on of the investigators, who immediately asked for a copy. No sweat, officer, here y'go. I hope that bastard burns; despite what the linked-to article says, there were three people injured, one of them pretty seriously.

    (Unlike the first wreck, I won't be putting this footage up on Youtube. It's... bad.)

        Javarod - I guess NoScript allowed me to (unintentionally) bypass that. It basically says some people were involved in a 2-car MVA w/rollover and that one person is in serious condition. Sounds to me like the news guys were just late to the scene and/or don't have all of the info yet, and that this is essentially a placeholder/some news is better than no news type of quickie article.

        Gihelmi - No worries. We have no problem with the occasional curse word or three worked into a post from time to time. We're mostly adults here; we can handle it We simply ask that people avoid gratuitous cursing, and avoid Fratch-worthy terminology. In other words, if it starts to sound like an episode of South Park, dial it down a notch. As always, if you're unsure, PM a mod and ask, then post after they reply. In that order.

          I did have a better article with more info at Fox10Phoenix.com, but can't find it any more...

            Ya, most of my words would have been "suggestions of violence and destruction of property".

            As for words of curse. I am well known among my friends to only use them if a catastrophe happens (or really tired, then people back away slowly ).

              a vehicle that size used improperly is a weapon capable of serious damage... I really hope those injured make a ful lrecovery, and this guy pays his debts.
