Jason Greenblat, 59, of Brooklyn NY was walking home from work one day when, as he crosses the street, he is run down by a driver in a Chevy Volt. Unable to hear the car coming, and the driver being drunk and unable to pay proper attention, he was hit essentially at full speed, rolled over the top of the car and into the gutter where he was later found badly bleeding and unconscious. He was taken to the medical center, where he spent several months recovering from the accident. He had suffered such a concossion he was barely able to walk and had to undergo months of physical therapy before he could once again function in society.
After being released from the hospital he was finally able to return to work. He spent several months readjusting to his old work, rebuilding his social life and trying to rebuild a sense of normalcy and a rhythm. Then, one day as he was walking home, two musicians who were preparing for a gig dropped a Marshall head out of a fifth story window, which struck Jason in the head, killing him instantly.
And so the life lesson: it's not the Volts that kill you, it's the amps.
