At 3:15, I heard the unmistakable bang and screech of a car accident on the corner. I resisted the tempation to run out and look like all the children in the courtyard. I knew I wouldn't be able to help and, well, the memory of my own accident over two and a half years ago still makes my blood run cold.
At 3:18, I heard the siren.
At 3:19, the police arrived.
I guess that's why we pay taxes.
There haven't been any more sirens, so hopefully that means there were no injuries, though I am still praying.
Now they need to use some more of those tax dollars to put in over-street lights, instead of the short little posts on the corners that we currently have.
