Brush with Death
Over a month ago I ordered a part for my bike, today it finaly came in, so I grab the bus into town. Knowing that i aways miss my bus back by a red light I plan to rush in and out of the store so i can get the bus I got off as it swings back. so i am in and out of the store fast, when I get out side I always run with the lights so i don't have to wait, I come all the way down the road untill I reach the corner under Halliday In, and i see that the light is yellow so i easyly run across the road to the other side, leaving this girl who walked down the street with me. I am on the corner of the other side on a crossing island when i hear a car speed up...then squeal from slamming its brakes on. I look up and see this black chavett locked up going about 70-80kmh, this car then T-Bones an other car 10F in front of me...the rest was all so mo...This bubble of glass goes up in the airjust missing me, well this car tosses an other civic style car 30 or so feet across the road...remember that girl i left...the car are now going at her....she turns her back and puts her sholder down to the car well getting covered in flying glass and metel...and oh ya...the 2 cars are now flying at her too...the chavett stops but the other car slides for a few more feet...hits the curb/ street poll..missing this girl by only feet becasue of the poll. now everything is stoped...my ears are ringing...the girls stands up shook her self off, checking to see if she was alive, I then look at the chevett guy....he was hurt...he smoked his face on his wheel and was bleeding it looking...the driver of the other car seemed fine, but his passanger was in pain...consedering the car is now a 2f less wider on that side...he looked like his arm was busted the way he was moving...but he still had his other arm to toss his cig out the window. I am now standing there in shoke watching all this when i finaly clue in, ok go help...go...get over there...I totaly freeze! what seemed like a few mins, could only of been 30 sec or so of watching this a guy on a cel phone with 911 comes to me and asks if in ok...all i can do is nod...he then runs over to the girl along with about 7 or 8 other people and they are trying to see if they can help, so I then come to the conclusion there is nothing i can do if i go over there, theres a lot of people there now i will just go home. 2 min later the bus comes and i get on it, i fell so bad for no going over, but i know i would no be able to do anything, but what if i could of....and hour later the radio said they were still there.
