Unhappy BAD accident about 10:30pm 580 west in San Leandro

Between 164th and 150th Ave exits

Looked like red Jetta 4 and couldn't tell what other car was, as it was upside down and completley engulfed in flames.

We saw one lady sprawled out in debris in the lanes. She was able to get up and walk to the shoulder. I hope nobody was in the flaming car.

I feel sick now

I did stop to help. I ran to within 10 ft of the flaming car. The lady was being atteneded to and my friend and I brought her some blankets.

This had to be one of the worst accidents I've seen, short of the head on I came upon up by Marysville back in 1992. An old Tercel and a Toyota 4 x 4 went head on. The Tercel's engine ended up in the cabin. I stopped to help, the driver of the truck was gone (?) and it was obviously too late for the Tercel driver. A local farmer was standing out in the road with a flashlight. I offered help, but he pointed to the windshield, which was covered with blood and brains.

I calmed waaaaay down in the car ever since.
