there was another trooper that was close by that i called for assistance to help with traffic control. it s his video that caught it on tape. i was shocked by what i saw. it wasn t me. it was somebody else. it was like a stunt man in a movie. i don t know that i will ever accept and truly believe that that was me. redman s laughing now but he s constantly reminded of that day in june 2005. i hurt still every day. the doctors can t find anything wrong with my hips or why my hips would hurt but my hips still hurt every day. redman also says the fear still lives with him that something like this could happen again. even today, i still have fear of getting back out on to the highway or being struck again. but it s part of the job. i have to. coming up, a firefighter s life hangs in the balance. ....

i said if i don t get up, get out of here, i m going to get run over again. and i stood up and stumbled back over to the guardrail. from the time i heard the tires squeal to the time i got to the guardrail was 11 seconds. it seemed like an eternity. it s nothing short of a miracle that redman sustains only minor injuries. i felt no pain through all of it until i got to the side of the road and i thought i had broken my ankle. his ankle is fine but when he collides with the concrete, redman gets a massive cut on his forehead. as for the suv that struck him three young people that were in the car, they were from pennsylvania and the vehicle was found 21 hits of lsd and two bags of mushrooms. no one admitted to it. they were all charged with it. they were arrested and transported to the louden county jail. it s not until the next day that redman realizes there s video of his terrifying accident. ....
