I was right there! I’m still shaking! The guy got his legs really hurt,
@CharlyLake so scary and sad!😢
Good camera work and narration
I truly believe ppl over 80 shouldn't be driving anymore
@linger82 I see what you mean. That said, I bet that far more accidents are caused by young male hotheads, than are caused by drivers age 80plus.
This guy was a old neighbor and he always looked like he had a hard time handling this car. Desperately hoping everyone is ok.
