It seems that some people go out of their way to get into trouble. That's more or less happened on the
night that Nashville police officer Floyd Hyde was on duty.
"I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville. As I got onto Highway 40, blue
lights and sirens(警笛) going, I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off
quickly down the highway. The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me. He was going more than
a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder."
But Hyde couldn't go after him. Taking care of injured people is always more important than worring
about speeders, so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident. But he did try to keep the Firebird
in sight as he drove, hoping another nearby unit(附近的警局)would be able to step in and stop the
speeding car. As it turned out, keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult. Every turn the Pontiac
made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene.
Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination. At that point he found unit had already
arrived at the accident scene. His help wasn't needed. Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the
Firebird, who by this time had developed something new to panic about.
"Just about that time," Hyde says. "I saw fire coming out from under that car, with blue smoke and
oil going everywhere. He had blown his engine. Now he had to stop."
"After I arrested him, I asked him why he was running. He told me he didn't have a driver's license".
That accident cost the driver of the Firebird plenty extra --- a thousand dollars for the new engine ---
not to mention the charges for driving without a license, attempting to run away, and dangerous driving.

One afternoon after school had finished , Peter and Jane were walking along the street. Suddenly they heard a big noise.
“Come on” shouted Peter.“That sounds like an accident. Let’ see what’s happened.”
They ran to where the noise came from. As soon as they got there, they could see what had happened. A small car had knocked into the side of a truck. The accident had happened in a quiet street with only four houses in it. Peter and Jane were the first ones to reach the site. No other people came.“We must be the only ones who saw the accident,” said Jane. They found that both the car driver and the truck driver were hurt.
“Peter,” said Jane,“ Run back down the road to Mrs Day’s house. Ask her to call the policemen and the ambulance. Hurry. I’ll stay here.”
Off went Peter as fast as he could. There was nothing Jane could do but wait. She knew that when people were hurt in an accident, they shouldn’t be moved. It wasn’t long before the police car and the ambulance arrived. The policeman got the car door open and they carried the man out. Then they got the truck driver out. The men weren’t seriously hurt, but they were both taken to the hospital. The policemen thanked Peter and Jane, “You were very good to act so quickly when you saw the accident. Thank you for all your help.”
