“A guy in a white pickup truck just pulled up and hit me from the front.” Its license plate was even lighter by the lights but he didn’t notice or care. I had gotten used to the thought that people wouldn't just hit you on the road. I thought about setting up a video camera across the road and having a review of the scene, without the drama of being in the car and calling the police. I could still recreate it. The truck, however, was central to the plan.
