I could have died.

WOW!
That is one part of my old job I miss, When they ran and I got to tackle them in the parking lot. I was a security guard in an ER and sometimes the drunks or crackheads tried to run away from the cops that were dropping them off. The cops didn't want to get dirty so they would sick us on them. Nothing like sledding on concrete and using a meth head as the sled.

Was your truck damaged from the blinker hitting it?
