Title: Lucky escaspe
Post by: paul.lovejoy on 05 March 2012, 22:51:39
the old boy 2 doors down had a very lucky escape a couple of days ago.we live on a very busy main road

he was tinkering with his car as it was ticking over he half climbed in to turn something on accidently knocked it into gear as he struggled to get in the car to push the brake pedal he hit the accelerator

the car reveresed off the drive at considerable speed with him half hanging out the car, missing his brick pier gate post a lamp post across two lanes of traffic without hitting anything by this time he was hanging out the car with his feet traped in the pedals his head bumping the tarmac

fortunatley the car stalled as it hit the fence of the house across the road

thankfully he was ok well very shaken with cuts to his head so kept in hospital over night

poor bugger all was worried about was his car....the guy across the road was just worried about his fence the knob did not even come out to help

quite supprissing nowadays how many people do not help another very sad by all accounts

Hope the old boy is ok. hate it when folks dont help. had to pick an elderly gent up off his yard last year, 1st time he had been out in months to do a bit of crimbo shopping, no end of people walked past him even though he was shouting for help. why are people like that these days. the world is not what it was. :(
