My Window of Accidents

It all started off with a *crash*, a sound I've heard many a time before. My instant reaction is to walk to my window and look at what happened, and most times its a car crash.
Well today, another crash occured, between two cars no less and most times it's always the same position outside my house so I always know where to look.
It's also ironic to me that so many car accidents happen there, since there's a speed camera to slow people down, but even at slow speeds cars can still go smashy smashy.



Here's a picture of the crash. Look how loving the cars are, resting their proverbial heads against one another. But that's not always the case. (never the case actually) Soon enough the police get called in to scope things out and contain traffic if needed and in some cases, these are needed...



An ambulance! I think a person in the passenger seat got hurt, but didn't really need the help after all as the ambulance left soon after it came. Tow trucks are always involved, in moving the cars out of the way and into the street where the ambulance is.
Right now the police are still talking with the people, the cars are being towed and its also raining.
The fun is over for me and there is nothing interesting to see anymore.

The biggest crash I've seen outside my house involved many police cars, one or two ambulances and two or three firetrucks and it was all outside my house. Lucky I didn't need to go out because that would've been impossible as they all took up our driveways and everything to rescue some poor person trapped inside their car. I think it was raining that night too...

I think the rain plays a part in these car crashes so until next time it rains, drive safely and don't drive outside my house!

It's so interesting to know that the speed camera just outside your house does absolutely nothing to prevent these accidents! Interesting because I got caught on that same camera once upon a time...
