Coming back from Fallon Saturday evening we sat and waited over an hour for the fire trucks, sheriff's cars, state troopers, ambulances, tow trucks etc., to quit blocking the road. All five lanes, plus the margins. We were about the 4th car in line after they shut the road down. More rescue vehicles kept showing up, too.
Sunday we heard the evening news report it. Two vehicle accident. One with two people going 65-70, another one with a reportedly drunk driver came off a crossroad and T-boned them completely across into the ditch on the other side.
All three dead on the scene, and apparently took 8 or so emergency vehicles and their crews over an hour to get them out and reopen the road.
Just cause you get up in the morning doesn't mean you'll climb back into your bed that night. At least that seems to be the only observation worth making to me in that kind of situation.
