Another traffic fatality to discuss...

I went through a green light once, years ago. I was the 3d car through the light, it was "very green." Some jackass in a 1980s oldsmobile ran the red light by going around the 2-3 stopped cars in his lane by driving into the left turn only lane to avoid them. Luckily I saw him and slammed on my brakes in time to have everything in front of the wheels of my honda accord removed.

The guy stopped in a parking lot right there, then took off! I was incredulous taht someone would leave a crash, and went into the motel lobby to use a phone. While on the line cop cars showed up, and I went outside frantically to describe the car and that he had fled.

The cop said, "calm dow, he didn't make it far. He rear-ended a police cruiser at Carlisle."

When the guy that hits you also hits a police car... they all show up, they even took pictures of my wreck for me
