Worst street race accident you saw.

01-03-2001, 04:25 PM

In downtown Detroit my buddies and I saw a drunk guy on a Harley trying to race everyone he had seen. Everyone knew better than to race him. So while people were trying to get races this guy is racing up and down the road (6 mile and Mt. Elliot).

At the end of the strip there is a guard rail and a curve. Well there is plenty of room to stop probably a 1/4-1/2 mile.

This guy takes his bike down the strip and you can hear him driving it out the back door. We can't really see him anymore and we see sparks. "He didn't make the turn" someone says. So, some people went down there and the guy hit the guard rail going fast, nothing left of his bike. He walked away, don't know the injuries, but I'm sure he had some broken bones.

I didn't see a whole lot of it because I left before the cops got there.

Anothery gruesome story, it isn't an accident, but I saw someone get shot. We were at 8 mile and Mound and I was finishing a race when the cops come. Well this is a border of two cities (Warren and Detroit). So we go across 8 mile to Warren in the Tim Hortons.

We are talking outside of our cars when we hear "freeze police" then I see someone running. I hear "freeze" again and then a gun shot. The guy drops and is laying there lifeless. I don't know if he survived. This is right in front a Chrysler plant and one of the guys was coming out from his shift early saw the whole thing from like 100 feet away. He came over to us at Tim Hortons and said that the guy was more than likely dead.
