[A Friend of Charlie]

good morning Tony and PackedAndUnpackedDaves.

Good morning, Deano.

[South Carolina Redfish]

I have looked at literally thousands of fatal crash photos in my 20 year highway career but this one is one of the more drastic  ones.  Happened last night in the Austin area and the best thing is there was apparently  only 1 person (yet to be confirmed)in this vehicle.  Hit head-on with an 18 wheeler.

Looks like someone put the front of that SUV in a Vitamix.

Or it got hit by a missle.

A tanker truck, too.  Could have been quite the conflagration depending on what he was carrying.

The person in the four-wheeler was, as a retired cop friend of mine says, DRT.  (Dead Right There).

Oh my, sorry to hear of it being a friend.

As long as we're looking at collisions of unequal opposing conveyances, here is video of the Midland TX area deputy responding to an emergency getting clocked by a train. He sustained only minor injuries.

No, not a friend was killed.  Read it again, Mr. Mayor.

The news I saw was not very clear, was it on 290 West in Oak Hill Area (near the Y) or west bound 290 near the Manor area?

I stand corrected, I was thinking “as” was a typo and should have been “is”. 

Yes, DRT is a common term for “bring the coroner to the site”.  Cops use it a lot with gang shootings.

Oak Hill area around 1 am.  Doubt we'll hear whether there was alcohol involved unless it was the semi-driver DUI.
