So obv last night ( this morning ) clay and alex r getting rdy to go to dublin.. so me, clay, alex, minion, bob, doomer, and yomer pull an epic like 16+ hour d2 LOD HC session. i get to sleep around 7:30am
i wake up from hearing my dogs bark at like 11.. im thinking wtf is going on why are they barking so much? i hear a fire truck, and im like ehh shits on fire again, i hear an anbulance and im like .. uhh someone died down the road..
( i live on a highway btw just outside a small city )..
so then i take a peek out my window and see cars just lined up down the road and fuckin huge trucks turning around in my driveway.. and im like.. oh shit, where is my mom? so i spring up at about 11:30 to make sure shes ok and everything..
just about the second i get up and get clothes on my mom calls me, shes obv crying and really a mess, i duno what happened.
she tells me they were pouring cement today for the foundation of our new house. its on the other side of our property, and we have 2 driveways, one goes to our nursery parking lot.. so anyway, she tells me the cement truck stopped in his lane to back up and back into our nursery.
parking lot (it leads to the new house)
anyway cement truck stops, roads clear, he starts backing up to get in the driveway. a semi truck comes ballin around a corner (400 yards away) and its going like 75mph+ (there is also a school zone like 1/4mi away from our driveway so he has no reason to be going this fast at all..) anyway, hes not paying attention, he sees the cement truck is stopped and jams on the breaks, he locks up the breaks, and slides leaving tire marks for something like 40 yards, i think the cops said..
the truck actually jack knifes while its sliding and the drivers side door slams right into the rear end of the cement truck..
im thinkin this guy is obv dead.. the cabs of those trucks arent built that strong cuz like nothing besides a cement truck can hit u there and not get stopped by the front of the semi truck... the cement mixer was just the perfect height to smash the cab and not be stopped by the front of the truck..
+ Show Spoiler +
so my iphone took some sick pics in good light.. i was pretty far back so these are very messily photoshopped..
the driver of the cement truck was fine, just a little shock.
the semi truck driver was stuck in the truck for a little over 40 mins while they tore the truck apart to remove him..
the life flighted him to one of oregons best hospitals, and is expected to be ok. i guess he was talking to the fire people and medics through the whole thing, but there were complications with how long it took to get him out of the truck.
freekin crazy morning, im just really glad neither of my parents were flagging traffic or something (like we normally do), they just didnt do it for some reason this time.. but yea im just really glad my family and everyone is all right.. things could have gone a million different ways that could have ended up in my family members dead or either of the drivers.

gotta love the giant irony stamped on the side of the cement truck. ohh and i heard the cement truck also had to stop the mixer, and the cement in it started to set up and ruined the mixer. |
