Day #144
Who says nothing exciting ever happens!?!
Just look at this fine piece of a highly maintained vehicle. This pretty much was the excitement from about 5:45pm to 6:45pm on our street. We were getting ready to sit down for dinner when we heard the Boom, the acceleration, the grinding etc. We ran out of the house, like every other neighbor did, to see this van come to a stop about 7 house down from our house.
This van side swiped my neighbors work truck, blew a tire, shattered the big passenger side rear window of the van, then proceeded to accelerate away from the accident with a blown tire until it came off the rim and got 7.. yes 7 houses down before pulling over. The road was covered with shattered pieces of glass and mirror parts and gouges in the pavement from the wheel rim.
The Result.
The driver ended up not having a licenses, and got cited for that and failure to control.
But on one was hurt, and me and the policeman swept up the glass.
EXCITEMENT!!!
