免許取立てなのでしばしば怖い目にもあいました。さて、深夜北九州自動車道を博多へと向かう楽器車、

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz May28/2014 It was soon after he got his license, so we came across scary incidents when he drove sometimes.

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz May28/2014 Well, we were heading for Hakata[Fukuoka] on our instruments and equipment car.

Susumu Hirasawa @hirasawa

運転をメンバーに代わりました。ヒラサワは後部座席でローディーと二人。ちょっとスピードが出すぎているので運転手に注意を促す。

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz may28/2014 It was when I and the guy changed places and I let him drive. Hirasawa seated in the back seat with the roadie.

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz May28/2014 I told the driver not to hit the gas pedal too much because the car was running slightly in a high speed.

Susumu Hirasawa @hirasawa

「もっとスピーど落とさないとカーブでヤバイぞ」と言い、隣のローディーに柿をむいて欲しいと要求したのです。

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz May28/2014 "You've got to slow down. Otherwise you won't make a turn at the curve", I said to the driver,...

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz May28/2014 ...and I asked the roadie next to me to peel a persimmon with a knife for me.

Susumu Hirasawa @hirasawa

ローディーは果物ナイフを取り出し、柿をむきはじめました。

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz May28/2014 The roadie started to peel a persimmon with a fruit knife.

Susumu Hirasawa @hirasawa

前方にキツめの左カーブ。ヤバイと思い「スピード落とせ！」と言ったが間に合わず

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz may28/2014 Suddenly, I saw a tight curve to the left ahead of us. I said, "Slow down!", but the driver couldn't do it.

Susumu Hirasawa @hirasawa

ではスローモーションです。車は曲がりきれず、右のガードレールに激突。

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz may28/2014 Here I explain it in slow motion. The car couldn't make the left turn and crashed into the guard rail on the right.

Susumu Hirasawa @hirasawa

反動で強く左に振られます。ここで無理にハンドルを反対に切ればよけいヤバイことになりますが、切りました。

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz May28/2014 The car was pushed around toward left on the rebound.

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz May28/2014 I knew "If you turn the steering wheel to the opposite way now, it'd make it even worse." But the driver did it.

Susumu Hirasawa @hirasawa

右に振られ反動で左に振られ、だんだん振幅が大きくなり、右に振られる時は右側の車輪だけが接地し、左側の車輪は浮き上がる、次はその反対。

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz May28/2014 Now the car was on its right wheels, and then on its left wheels on the rebound. The amplitude increased gradually.

Susumu Hirasawa @hirasawa

何回か蛇行二輪走行を繰り返すうちに片側の車輪が浮き上がる高さが増してゆくであります。

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz May28/2014 The car continued running, tilted up at one side in turn, and the angle of the tilt became bigger and bigger.

Susumu Hirasawa @hirasawa

ついに車体の右側面が路面に接触。

Lucy @Lucy1205

#twhz May28/2014 The car was sliding on its right side at last.

Susumu Hirasawa @hirasawa

左に居たローディーが果物ナイフを持ったままヒラサワの上に落ちてきます。
