I talked with some guys who were there and Nick was apparently driving a Yamaha "Gator", striking (removing) the fake license plates off of the vehicles used in the freeway scene and was hit by the Directors vehicle ejecting Nick and throwing him into the K-rail and causing massive head injury. It's a very sad situation and I know His Father is having a very hard time with this. As Hugh R on this board knows, filming is a very complex, expensive and "hurry up" business and accidents like this are the outcome. It's because of guys like Hugh that I'm sure they don't happen as often. We all need to "Be Aware" no matter what line of work we are in.
