Saw an Accident on the way home

[Scuba_Dave]

Must have just happened, saw a vehicle in the left lane stopped
So traffic was slowing down, everyone moving to the right lane
Some were taking the exit ramp to get by
That's how I knew it just happened
In the far right lane I saw a car upside down on the exit ramp
It either went over the guard rail or flipped multiple times down the ramp
Seemed like it went over the guard rail - took out a sign
Hoping no-one was killed & they had their seat belt on
The guy from the truck was standing by the side of the road
The truck was pretty messed up
I saw 4 police cars speeding to the scene on the other side of the Expressway

A minute or so earlier & we would have been in the middle of it

man seeing a wreck like that makes you realize how dangerous it is while driving.

A few years back I was driving from Gainesville to Tampa and had a college student tailgateing me bad and I moved to the slow lane to let her past, after she past I went back to the fast lane. 5 min later I started to see fog, I soon realized that the fog was brake/tire smoke and I soon started to see debris followed by the rear end of a acura integra coming straight at me, I veer a sharp right into the slow lane cutting off cars and was very lucky not to be involved in the accident. It turns out that the acura started tailgating the car in front of me and that car brake checked causing the acura to hit the rail and bounce backwards before going sideways along I 75 and causing a serious accident. that was the worst accident I have seen first hand

Yeah most are very scary Ithink the worst I have ever seen was when a gas truck actually blew up.... Not really sure how it happened all I know was when I came up too it there was still flames and smoke and traffic was backed up for 3 hours.... Longest trip to seattle EVER!!! Thankfully we where runing late that day I dont think I would be wanting to drive near that when it happened....
