As one of the people at the scene who called 911, I'm very relieved to know that everyone is alive.

apparently these kids don't know much about Allens Ave, Point Street or Eddy Street. That intersection has been like for years and will never change. Either all 5 of these kids were completely and utterly wasted and having an intriguing discussion about life, because it must have been way too important for the driver to realize he was driving through the blatant red light at that quirky insection. OR these kids don't leave Pawtucket too often.
