This past season I was leaving the parking lot after a Falcons game. The traffic was pretty bad so I just hung out with these young guys chatting about how bad the game sucked. One of the cutest guys was in a wheelchair. I commented about his new truck and he showed me all the hand controls. You could tell he was proud. He told me he had been in a chair all his life. He was in front of me leaving the lot and we both at the same time approached an intersection where the cops were directing traffic. I was turning right and he was turning left. The last thing I saw was this truck full of young guys waving at me and then I turned to look at the traffic to see if I could go. I heard an awful sound of brakes and I turned just in time to see the officer wave him to turn and then jump out of the way. The oncoming traffic didn't stop and T-bones this new truck full of young people. That truck flipped twice and ended upside down.
I took a towel from my vehicle to them to help the cops get the glass and gasoline from them. It was going everywhere.

The cops yelled at me and told me to move and get out of the way, so I left when the firetrucks and EMT's arrived. It was awful.
