## ***Summary***

### **Scenario 1**

**2019 June 2nd, Italy, 5:17 PM**

It is a late afternoon in Italy as many drivers drives around. Ron and Charlie race along the road in their exotic rental cars. Charlie says that renting the cars were a great idea. Ron replies by telling him not to crash. Charlie overtakes Ron but goes the wrong way. Charlie turns around and drives behind Ron. An ETK 800-Series Polizia pulls off of the shoulder after performing a traffic stop. Charlie is surprised at how busy rural Italian roads are. Ron guesses that people are driving home from work. Ron and Charlie enter the freeway. Ron tells Charlie that he got to the freeway first and Charlie lost the race. Charlie replies that he will win next time. At 5:21 PM, Charlie cuts off a MAN TGS cement mixer; the truck turns to avoid Charlie, overcompensates turning back, and flips onto his side blocking the road. The drivers behind the cement mixer crash into each other. A black Gavril B-Series dump truck can't stop and smashes into the set of cars.

The driver of a red H-Series miraculously survived being crushed by the B-Series. Many people are injured, some worse than others. Two passengers in a blue Alfa Romeo Brera died. The driver and front seat passenger were rushed to the hospital where they later recovered. The passenger in the rear seat of a white Mercedes G-Wagon didn't make it. Both police officers had a few broken bones but that didn't stop them from helping injured people in nearby cars. The MAN driver wasn't wearing his seatbelt which resulted in a serious head injury.

In total, twelve people were injured, three people died and six people had no injuries after all.

### **Scenario 2**

**2018 July 10th, Los Injurus, 2:32 PM**

It is a cloudless afternoon in Los Injurus. A yellow Lamborghini Diablo SV descends a hill. Diego backs out of his driveway while telling someone on the phone he's excited too see them. A gray Lexus GS350 F Sport leaves the gas station. Meanwhile, Larry drives along the road pulling a trailer with a large speedboat. Ellen expresses incredulity that Larry bought the boat. Larry sarcastically expresses incredulity that she's still talking about it. Many drivers drive along various roads. Many more drivers stop at a traffic light down the hill. Ellen tells Larry to slow down or else he'll kill somebody. Larry replies that he knows what he's doing. At 2:37 PM, Larry can't slow down as the boat is too heavy. Larry jackknifes and the boat detaches and plows into the cars stopped at the light. The impact causes a car to catch fire. Sam was near the crash but he avoided it. One of the cars on fire explodes. Several drivers that were near the flames drove away to a safe distance. Santiago unable to free himself and his car is engulfed in flames along with him in it. Larry drives away from the flames. Diego was still in his car trying to free it from being stuck. Charles bumps into him and yells to abandon his car and save himself.

Injuries, blocked or damaged doors prevented seven people from escaping the flaming pile up. Diego abandoned his car just before the flames reached it. Twenty-one drivers and passengers are lucky to be alive. Same goes for the people on the bus.

It is a cloudy afternoon in Roane County, Tennessee. A green Datsun 510 pulls out of a parking spot. Elizabeth and Andrew pulls out of their driveway.

Jefferson panics and slams on the brakes and is rear-ended by a Gavril H15 UPD van. The van swerves left and is spun out by a red Gavril B-Series flatbed. A black customized Gavril Vertex bumps into a red Nissan 240SX. Jess ramps off the 240SX and lands on the Vertex. Jefferson flips and rolls over several oncoming cars. Elizabeth flips over.

The Vertex driver was killed instantly. Jess survived. Elizabeth suffered serious injuries but lived. Andrew only had a few scratches. The driver of the 510 suffered serious head trauma and died later in the hospital. Two of Marcel's friends were killed in the back seat. Him and his girlfriend were lucky to be alive. Jefferson and Dennis didn't survive. Other drivers had little to no injuries.

* In the second scenario, the house with the pink Cadillac parked in the driveway is a direct reference to the Simpsons house. You can also hear Homer saying, "Why you little" as he is going to strangle Bart.
