Reminds me of the day my mom and i went to the zoo… got off the bus and proceeded down the rear entrance to, the zoo is in a creek valley, the entrance has a s curve to go under a bridge. we were about half way to the fist curve when we heard tires squealing and horn honking from behind us… looking back up the drive we saw saw the underside of a car as it left the roadway near the top of the hill. It land close to us and keeps on going. Coming up the hill were to boys pushing their bikes just clearing the turn. The car drives right off the turn , boy stumbled a bit off the sidewalk but were fine. Car disappeared over the tops of the trees and about a second later we heard a loud thunk as it hit the ground in the ball field parking lot. A drop prolly around 50 ft. We made are way down the drive as quickly as we could and headed to the ball field parking lot to find the driver walking away from his car… wheels a bit bent outward from the impact. We asked if he was o and he seemed to think so, he explained his brakes failed and was lucky he didnt hit anyone in the intersection at the top of hill. Quite a memory made that day and something to tell the rest of the family when we returned home.
