How old was he when it happened?
He was 16. It was on a friday night. He went to the local drive-in and got drunk with some friends. He didn't want to come home drunk, so he went to a friends house to stay the night, but he wasn't there. So he drove into our nieghborhood the back way which was a street down a steep hill with a sharp turn at the end. He was going about 60 mph down the hill and didn't make the turn. He slammed, drivers-side door first, into a tree. The drivers door was bent into a perfect half-circle. Our house was a block away, I heard it happen.
