Drau Accident: Day 8 Update (scroll down)

Hopefully Ed should be home today. When I spoke to him yesterday afternoon, there was a very good chance he'd be released from the hospital last night. I'll try to reach him later.

On the news this morning, they announced that the male who fled on foot was believed to be the passenger and that the drunken woman on the scene who hit the telephone pole was actually the driver.

Good news!


Now they can't hold the driver responsible for Ed's mishap, can they?

The news said "charges and arrest pending".

I'm thinking that a chain reaction started by a drunk driver hitting a pole might be treated as if she hit someone in a car. The truck wouldn't have been involved and caught the phone lines if she hadn't drunkenly crossed the oncoming lane and hit the telephone pole, causing it to crack and bend down, starting the chain reaction.

The most unfortunate part is that there was just enough time for her to get out of her car, Ed to stop, and THEN the truck caught the lines and brought the pole crashing down.

I lost score here somewhere. There were 4 people at the scene, right? Ed and his wife, the drunk girl (guy bolted) and the property owner? Who all got hit by the pole?

Right. Ed and the property owner were hit by the pole. Ed's wife was just knocked to the ground (bruised on the concrete).

I'm on my way
Well, I'm on my way
Home sweet home
Tonight tonight
I'm on my way
Just set me free
Home sweet home


Thanks for the update!

...let's not forget the moronic truck driver, who sees an accident and apparently thinks the best course of action is not to actually look around and watch for road hazards, but to keep driving blithely on... [img]graemlins/whatever.gif[/img]

nah, the dude that possibly fled the scene of an accident, not to mention and intoxicated bitch driving, disregard, or whatever else... could be plenty o' charges... I think. I suck at the law. [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

Good to hear he's heading home! [img]smile.gif[/img]

I talked to his wife yesterday and He's home and resting.

I've been kinda waiting to see if he pops in here for a few minutes, but it looks like he's not up to it yet.

I'll probably stop by his house and see him tonight.

that's great he's finally home [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img] you always get much better rest in your own home. i hope he's up to visiting us here real soon [img]wink.gif[/img]

So glad he is home, and recovering well. I hope we hear from him soon.

Well, he picked up some new glasses today (his were shattered and swept up with car parts)

He's been sleeping ALOT... but is making progress.

I'll see if I can get a message from him to pass on to all of you.

Oh wait... I think I have a message from him....

"nnnnggggghh......"

Ohhhh kay. I guess we'll wait until he's not on so many drugs. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Glad to hear Ed made it home. Now he'll be able to get the much needed rest he couldn't get in the hospital.

*patiently waits for some boardies to ask for some of the drugs* [img]tongue.gif[/img]

So this should settle the debate between me and Drau as to who is shorter. [img]wink.gif[/img]

Hmm... his head was smashed... but you have to allot for swelling.... and stitches.... [img]wink.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Right. Does he have that big lump on his head like in the cartoons? That'll make him taller. [img]wink.gif[/img]

Can I PM you the address of where he should send the left over drugs?
