…to a friend’s house for dinner. She lives a couple of blocks from me and I was walking across a major road (at the crosswalk) toward her home. Suddenly, I heard a crash and looked up to see that a car that had been trying to make a U-turn had misjudged the turn and had hit a light pole.

Thank goodness the driver wasn’t going to fast. The car was also a late model something. Instead of getting out to see what the damage was, the driver backed the car up, corrected the steering wheel and went on its merry way. As for the light pole, I didn’t see any damage from my location, but I’ll take a look at it when I walk the dogs tomorrow.
