I don't know how we're gonna handle it around here if the cops don't start to do something about the way people drive in this neighborhood. A neighbor was killed Monday afternoon on the same road where the woman on the cell phone totaled our car and the old man drove straight off the curve and through my fence without turning a wheel or slowing down. The intersection where the drunk woman went end over end and wasn't arrested.
I was out in the feedlot Monday cleaning out some holes so I could cement them back in. I heard a boom off to the south. Just shortly after that the wife leaned her head and said she thought she heard somebody screaming for help. She walked down by the gate and listened. Wasn't sure if she heard it again or not. It was several minutes later and the rescue squad went south. She said "I told you so" and said she thought it might be at George's place a quarter mile south. She got in her car and headed down there.
I kept on with what I was doing but the ambulance went south,then some cop cars. Turns out it as a half mile south and we heard it this far away. Some greasy bearded redneck driving like a batoutahell topped a hill when the neighbor was swinging out in the road with his 4 wheeler while dragging his driveway. He called his wife first and told her to call 911. That was his story anyway. Who knows what he had her come and get. The guy laid there in the road all mangled up all that time anyway.
He hit the 4 wheeler so hard that it almost took the top off the car when it went over the top. The windshield and back window were both out. The guy laid about 100 feet past his driveway,what was left of the 4 wheeler was beyond him and the car was in a bean field way on down the road. He died on the way to the hospital. The driver of the car kept claiming he was only going 55 and the sun was in his eyes. Well,he was going south and the sun was way over in the west that time of the afternoon and why was he driving 55 on a gravel road if he couldn't see? I don't know for sure what happened in the end,but I'll bet you he went home and slept in his own bed that night.
I'm so sickened by these idiots and the fact that the cops just flat out refuse to do anything about it. I don't know if it's because the county is flat broke and can't afford to prosecute anybody or what. I'll bet they'd find the money of any of us in this neighborhood take the law in to our own hands. Now somebody in the neighborhood is dead and I'll bet the farm nothing will change as far as law enforcement is concerned.
