Accident 395 and 98

[ShallowsNole]

Of course. And then the lights were installed.

395/98 has ALWAYS been dangerous, even when 98 was a two-lane, because 395 crosses at an angle. If you are crossing from 395 north, an eastbound car will arrive much sooner than most folks seem to think it will.

And then there are those who don't stop at all.

Not sure if this is related, but here's some photos and a video of someone being loaded into the helicopter at the Fire Station on 395.

Oh gee, this isn't good.

My other response was to reply about the deputies that used to be stationed there. I should have quoted it.

Remember when there were deputies sitting the with their lights on 24 hours a day?

Yep, the fire department was blocking the road and I couldn't pass, so I did what everyone always asks for and took pics.

Sorry, it's a cell phone camera hence the lovely quality. :roll:

DVDs.

The deputies were trying to get traffic to pay attention until the traffic lights were installed.

I was told that three people were thrown from the car and that all four who had been in it died. I certainly hope I am talking about the same accident. I'd hate to think there was more than one.

Not a problem.

I sent it to the flightcrews. They appreciated seeing the pics and video.
