On the way back from the Distillery District yesterday our streetcar was stopped because of an accident. After talking to one person I found out that it was a motorcycle accident hitting a car. The man on the ground weighs 320 pounds and was unconscious on the scene. There was a crowd gathering around as the medical staff raced to save his life. I watched for it on the news but I never heard anything. Anyways, drive safe~


Update: People have been questioning whether or not I should be posting these photos or not. I have not shown the man's identity at all, and will not out of respect. The accident is a horrible horrible thing, and maybe this photo can be a reminder to others to watch out for motorcyclists on the road. I did not interfere with any of the personnel and me taking photos does not lower the chance of his survival, it only raises awareness. Look what can happen on Lakeshore, a street that doesn't even have high speeds.
