I have the initials of a guy tattooed on my arm, same thing happened to him. I don't know him, but I was first on the scene and he ended up bleeding out in my arms. Big Dodge dually diesel, front tire went right over him as he got out after parking.

There was also a case here a few months ago, maybe a year. Lady reaching out of her car to put in the keypad code for the apartment parking lot gate, foot slipped off the brakes since she was stretching out of the car too far, car starts to roll forward and open door hits fence, pinning/crushing her in car door killing her.


CARS ARE REALLY HEAVY AND WILL MESS YOU UP LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED.
