Yes , i was in the 914 and he was in a construction company pick up truck!
First off let me say that is the first real close call since ive owned the car in the past 6 years. So i am feeling VERY BLESSED!!! The community i live in is on a busy 6 lane highway(3 going each way) . I am stopped, the light turns green and i start to pull out to turn left on to the highway, i always look back to the left before completing my turn, and out of my right side peripheral vision i see somthing so i hit the brakes!! He is going full speed at least 60, flies thru the intersection just missing me, swerves, looses control and flips over 2x and a half! landing on the side! over on the right side of the road. There are cameras at the intersection so i suppose the HWP will be able to pull the video feed for the intersection to see it. also glad to report that the drive of the other car was o.k. I think he was thrown out of the truck, because i never took my eyes off the vehicle and i never saw him crawl out, he walked around from the back side! very lucky he is alive!!! BTW that stretch of highway , about a 8 mile stretch had 150 accidents at 4 different intersections last year alone, including several fatalities(a friend's mother-in-law was killed one mile from this ). SO be careful out there!!!!!!! |
