Years ago we had a major wreck on NE Lombard (Portland,OR)where it is a pretty wide 4 lane. Three lanes blocked with several fire rigs plus the wrecked cars and likely an ambulance. I was on the West side directing traffic to a side street with a stop sign. Two gals come flying down the street without slowing and passed within 3 feet of me as I yelled STOP at the top of my lungs. The driver does stop but is shaking like a leaf when I walk up to the window. I ask her why she didn't stop? Same thing, didn't see me and then I asked her about the whole street basically clogged up with red fire trucks and red flashing lights. Didn't see those either. I let her know she is very lucky she didn't kill somebody right there. Not sure how you could be that blind and inattentive but they both obviously were.
