I may need you to come back me up so I can turn on Labelle.
00:05
He said it was Mercer and Diagonal, so I thought I could turn on Courtland, and I passed Labelle.
00:12
If I can turn there, I get around this accident, but.
00:19
It's going to be a minute, so I'm the only one here.
00:21
So it was going to be a minute.
00:23
You can see if any professional police come back you up, but right now I'm the only one here.
00:30
Yeah, um,
00:33
I'll have to see what I can figure out.
00:37
What's your coach number?
00:41
(number withheld). Black three zero signal three.
00:48
Yeah, they're turning cars completely around here before you can even get to Courtland.
00:55
I copy.
00:59
So where is it at? Is it between Labelle and Courtland? So if he made the left on Labelle,
01:04
the right on Packard to a ride on Courtland back to Diagonal, that wouldn't work.
01:10
Yeah, would.
01:11
But I'm just barely past Courtland.
01:13
I'm about a bus length and a half out of it.
01:18
And a tow truck just showed up on Courtland, so I don't know if that we might have to go to Mercer to get back out.
01:25
It looks like it's right in the intersection of Courtland and Diagonal.
01:32
Okay, I got you now.
01:33
I see you right there, little bell.
01:34
Yeah.
01:38
All right, I would try to get over there.
01:40
But let me know in the meantime if that vehicle gets moved at any time.
