Description: In this footage most likely shot for an Austin-based network news affiliate, two automobile wrecks are shown. In the first, a flipped semi truck attracts a crowd by the highway, while close-up shots of police and bystanders provide a fascinating look at Austin’s residents. In the second, night footage of a wrecked sedan, illuminated by the neon signs of Austin’s downtown area, frames the investigation of Austin police officers.
