Gordon said there was no time to sound a warning. He dove for the Rood pickup. Almost simultaneously, Proudfoot's pick up slammed into the Roods' ve hicle and struck Gordon, throw ing him into the middle of the road. Gordon stated that the next thing he knew he was lying in the center of the road and was unable to move. Proudfoot's pick up came to rest on its top further up the road.
