Lord, come to E. Give her peace. Take her fear away.

Wreck on Merrimon right against the lake. The vehicles involved declined to pull over to the side, so a line of stopped cars stretched back to Woodfin. When I got close and saw what happened, I attempted to pull into the opposite lane and get around the wreck while the nearest oncoming car was still far away. But when that car saw me, the driver sped up to, I would guess, at least 70MPH and lay on his horn. I decided I wasn’t going to move– I couldn’t anyway, as a car had pulled into the space I just left. I expected a crash at any second, but in the last few feet he swerved and drove down the berm . I moved on.
