Witness Allen, TX	#1 Sep 19, 2012 Craziest car accident I have ever seen off coit rd in Plano tonight. Praying for his family. Took out a brick wall and it happened right in front of us... We could have gotten video but no one needs to see that again :( crazy how fast it happened. Flames everywhere and the driver mangled on side of road. I will never get that image out of my head. Makes you think twice about speeding ... I just wonder why he had to drive so fast and crazy down that road. Police are still cleaning up, hours later. No one else was involved, physically. I'm sure everyone who witnessed it and the cars in front of us will be traumatized by this accident forever. I know I am... Reply » Report Abuse Judge it!

From what I could see it looked pretty horrible. Sorry you had to witness it. Reply » Report Abuse Judge it!
Blake Southlake, TX	#3 Sep 19, 2012 I drove up on the northbound side right after it happened. I thought a small plane had crashed when all I could see were parts on fire everywhere. Sad sad story. Praying for his family. Reply » Report Abuse Judge it!
Michelle San Antonio, TX	#4 Sep 20, 2012 I was on the northbound side of the road as well and noticed a fire on the median. As I got closer I saw the fire on the other side of the road and that's when I noticed the frame of the car and parts of the car scattered across both sides of the road. I could not believe my eyes. I had arrived upon the accident before the police were there. I had to turn down a side road because I had my small daughter with me and I was afraid of what she might see. I am praying for this family. Reply » Report Abuse Judge it!
