When I was about 20 years old I was driving down the 14 freeway in Southern California with my father

we were somewhere between Palmdale and Lancaster on our way to to Hatchepy outside of Mojave.

And coming down the other lane on the other side of the freeway was this big sudden ball of

dust car metal.

We had no idea what it was.

My dad gasped

pulls over the car and it takes a few seconds for everything to settle down

enough to even figure out what had just transpired. What had happened is

there was a full-size van filled with people that was pulling a trailer filled with stuff.

It was a makeshift trailer homemade from the back of a pickup truck sawed off and the trailer was filled with home goods, washer, dryer, literally everything and the kitchen

sink, mattresses, stuff toys, everything you could imagine.

Seems the trailer had jackknife, rolled the van, the whole caravan had gone rolling down the freeway

When the desk settled a little bit more my father and traffic stopped on both sides

So my father and I jumped over the middle divider and we started to approach the vehicle by the time we got

there's about 10 people surrounding the vehicle just frozen everybody's in a

state of shock and they're looking at this van and it's very clear that there's a

lot of stuff to big vehicle there's probably a lot of stuff to big vehicle. There's probably a lot of people inside

that van and nobody wants to open the door because when you open the door you're

probably going to see blood you might see a dead person. That's not a fun way to spend

a Thursday afternoon by anyone's estimation, but my father

walked over and he opened the door.

He opened the door only to discover that everyone was okay. There was no blood.
