UPDATE: Car-on-side crash on SW Holden

7:39 PM: SPD and SFD are arriving at the scene of a car-on-side crash in 900 block of SW Holden. Responders say everyone is out of the vehicle but the street is blocked, so avoid the area.

7:49 PM: Reader photo added.

8:22 PM: Live SDOT camera shows Holden is still blocked, crashed car still on side. We’ll be checking with SFD regarding injuries; the response was downsized quickly, and no medic unit remained assigned, which suggests no major injuries.

    Another car-on-side accident. Is is a west seattle thing? Seriously,  there’s one every week.

      Happens at least weekly somewhere else in the city; I hear the dispatches. But obviously we only write about them when they happen here.

    We were driving the opposite direction and watched it happen. I helped the individual out of the car via the sun roof. She was fine and the only person in the car. She hit a parked car and flipped on her side.

    The phenomenon continues to impress me.

    We need Fox Mulder and Dana Scully to investigate these.  The truth is still out there…

    We will be coordinating a party for the 100th car tipper of West Seattle. We have a ways to go, but it’s definitely doable. 

Sorry, comment time is over.
