Sept 2 2006- Car accident

All this happend around 9pm I guess, My brohter and George were just getting back from droping of a car. While george was back the truck and trailer in, they saw the truck and it wasnt slowing down. George was about half way out on the road, when he notice the car wasnt stopping he went in reverse as fast as he could to get out of the way. When the truck went past George was in the driveway completely.(If George didnt get the Truck in the driveway on time, he would have been hit,and pretty much dead,So would my brother.) The driver in the truck slamed on his brakes when he was in front of our mail box. Justin saw him going straight until the bushes and then couldnt see him. Justin came running in telling me to call 911, As I was doing this we all went out side. We were on the front lawn and heard him accelerating, Justin thought he was trying to get away,But when we all got to the road, it was worse then we thought it was.

The guy had fliped his truck on the side,the pole was snaped in half,(Well more then snaped in half cause he ripped the whole thing right out of the ground)it was on top of the truck, and the hydro wires where wrapped around his truck, There was also smoke coming out. I was on the phone with the police telling them what had just happened. I’m looking at this truck, and i see my mom and brother running out to see, I heard them yelling to the guy, He never answered back.

The police told me to tell people not to go near the truck, cause of the wires, and that they could be a fire.
I went running down yelling ” dont touch him, they said not to go near it”  And of course there has to be one idiot, He went up punch out some of the window to see if he was breathing, and he was. Lucky guy. We thought he was dead, where he was the door was smashed in, his arm was hangin out of the door covered in blood,His head, I cant even explain it. Never seen anything like that in my life, And hope I never do again.

After about 25-35 min, they got him out of the truck, They had to cut the roof off. He had a neck brace on and had oxygen. So he was alive. If he made it though the night,I dont know. When we asked the cop, she said it didnt look good. If he makes it, then he is one lucky guy

Truck was finally gone at 5 am, it took them hours to get the truck out of the pole and wires. But he was going way over the speed limit. for this road, which is 60, and he was going well over 100, and it was raining too.

You cant really tell in the photos, But there is a shit load of stuff on the ground, The front window of the truck was over by the brick gate, the starter was by the grass line and road. Music Tapes, Papers, broken glass, A neak brace (when i went by it again someone had taken the neck brace..Fucking people) one of those Oxygen mask and some plasic tubes, pieces of the inside of the car such as floor matts,ETC..The yellow blanket on the road was on the gurney, I believe they took it off before putting him on it(I dont know why).

*Update* 

Later on today the guy who re-does the accident was down today, with 2 cops. They had my dad hook the trailer back up to the truck, they were surprise that the lights on the trailer worked,(I guess they dont see that very often), thy noted that, and that the trailer also had reflective tape on the sides, and the truck has reflective pinstriping. They also told us the guy is is recovery, and is doing fine. The mess that was left there is gone, the neighbours cleaned it up this afternoon.

I didnt take picture of the accident it self,Sorry, But I would never do that.But I did take picutres of the damage it did to the pole.
