I had something very similar happen. Wrecked a Jeep in Fayetteville travelling from one swimmin’ hole to the next back in the 80’s. Pretty bad wreck. The folks who were following me, according to the lady who called 911, stole stuff that was scattered around afterwards while I was waiting for assistance. Nice people.
Well,at least you can say that you drove in Fayettenam and lived to tell......
