Kaboom.

We had just taken the dogs for a quick romp at the park down the street and were walking home, when an oncoming car swerved across the road and crashed into a tree on our side of the road, just past our street. We were perhaps 50 feet east of our street and the accident happened just west of it. The car hit a very large tree with a resounding crash.The dogs, particularly Memphis, were shaken up by the noise. The driver, the only person in the car, hit the tree with a good deal of force, scrunching the whole front end of his car in. Although his door was affected by the accident, he managed to get out of the car. I stayed down there with him, while Tuffy P took the dogs home and called 911. The fellow was walking around, but he might have been in shock. The police arrived in just a few minutes. By that time, Tuffy P had rejoined me. The officers sent us home, but said they might have to drop by to ask some questions.

    I imagine everyone was shaken. That sounds a little too close for comfort. Any idea how that collision could have happened?

      I don’t know. He simply drove into the tree. He was bruised but walking around after the accident and he said he sneezed twice and lost control.
