[QUOTE="okiebryan, post: 1892532, member: 24457"] Worked a call this afternoon on a Chevy Tahoe that had quit in the center lane of NW10th street WB between I-44 and Portland. I hooked the front with my wrecker, and was setting up dollies under the rear axle. My wrecker is BIG and bright red, and I had very bright red and blue lights flashing in my lightbar. People are coming by me way too fast and way too close. One of them got me while I was bent over. Hit my right elbow and hip. I spun around and faceplanted the side of this Tahoe, then landed on my left knee. I fell on my side and couldn't tell how far I was from the Tahoe I was hooking up, and for a second thought I was out in traffic. Rolled under the car as fast as I could and just laid there for a minute taking inventory. Several people drove past and not a **** was given by anyone. Turns out I have a LC9 shaped bruise on my right hip, and a VERY sore knee. Mostly, I'm pissed off. Quit driving like an ******* around emergency vehicles. Someone could have very easily killed or permanently disabled me today. [/QUOTE]
