Does anyone here in yahoo answers community ever met a motor/car accident before?

Answer 1

Here is one that I saw happen and it was a very terrible sight to see.

ELM MOTT - A motorcycle wreck in McLennan County has taken the life of one man.

It happened just after 10 P.M. Monday night on FM 308 in Elm Mott.

State troopers tell News Channel 25 Mark Franklin, 49 years old of Waco, was riding his motorcycle when he crossed over the road and struck a drainage culvert.

He was thrown from the motorcycle and pronounced dead at the scene.

State troopers tell us Franklin was not wearing his helmet.

His motorcycle was the only vehicle involved in this wreck.

Answer 2

Yes, yesterday night, I was / am horrified.

I Myself along with my wife having a little practice ride.

I am learning since last week and was gaining confidence.

Trying take my car between two parked two wheelers I mistakingly pressed accelerator instead of break.

I lost control I banged against wall.

But luckily nobody hurt except my car. I will have to replace front guard and there is dent on the driver's side.

But I tell you, I am very nervous and I could not sleep yesterday night.

I am thinking what would have happened if I would have killed somebody. But thank god, it was night and everybody was watching new year's eve programs on TV.

I have posted one question regarding gaining confidence today itself. I got answers and everybody guided me very nicely. This is the best place where we get good support from good people. They really encouraged me on this.

I think what you're asking is if anyone has ever witnessed or been in a car accident before. Yes I have seen and been in way too many. If you're first on the scene make sure someone is calling 911. Also you'll need to set flares or warn oncoming traffic that there is an accident ahead. Hopefully you know first aid. If you don't take a simple first aid course. Ask at work if they'll pay for a first aid course, they likely will. If there is no help coming soon and you don't know first aid you'll need to assess the injuries. It's not something I can explain adequately in a 300 word essay. So don't criticize me for trying. (1) Call for help 911 (2)Secure the area so no more accidents happen (3) Check to see how many people are injured, some of the less injured people may know first aid (4) Check that they are breathing, you'll need a first aid course to tell you what to do if there not breathing (5) Put pressure or a tourniquet on any heavily bleeding parts, It's not a good idea to move someone if they can't move by themselves. I hope that gives you incentive to take a first aid course. And i hope that answered your question.
