It was raining but supposed to stop soon so I went ahead and drove to the golf course to meet up with my golf buddies. Two cop cars passed me on I-44, and took the same exit I did to HW 249. I followed them about 5 miles and saw what they were going to, a wreck in the other side of the 4-lane highway. An ambulance was already on the scene, and a couple of other cops, and two pickup trucks that looked like they were probably the first on the scene and went to assist.
Silver Ford crew cab pickup on it's side, all I could see as I approached was the undercarriage. A body with a bloody sheet over it laying beside it. On this pass I didn't know what type of truck it was, or if it was even a truck. Raining very hard, couldn't see more than about 50 feet or so.
Sat in the parking lot at the golf course for half an hour. It just rained harder and harder and harder. We all decided to call it a day. On the trip back it was really raining about as hard as I've seen it, like crazy hard. Came on the scene, was surprised to see the cops there but not doing anything, the body still lying there, and the ambulance gone.
The truck had obviously flipped several times, it was a mess. Roof was pretty much caved in, all the glass broke out of course, just really messed up. This is a 70 MPH highway.
It was raining too hard for the cops to even work the scene. I guess there were some other injured passengers who went in the ambulance. Came home, decided to take my wife to brunch, and saw fire trucks, ambulances, cop cars, all over the place, going out to various wrecks. It was like a blinding 40 minute downpour, scary as shit on the highway, I pulled over twice because I couldn't see past the nose of my vehicle.
