accident

Firetrucks stop on my street a lot more lately since the homeless and the junkies moved in. Thankfully the junkies may not be staying because the proposed needle exchange is half a block from a school. After being annoyed by the sirens, I decided to photograph whatever happens on my street. The last time, paramedics were giving someone an injection, but they were inside a glass bus shelter and I couldn't get a good shot. This time it turned out to be a traffic accident, though I don't know exactly what happened. There was an ambulance out the right side of the shot, but nobody was on the stretcher and thankfully nobody seemed hurt. Judging by the broken windshield, I'm guessing someone -- perhaps on the bike -- was hit by the car. Good job for safety glass.
