Did anyone see this or do you have any comments ?
Downtown Nashville- a lot of times Broadway is closed off to vehicles we typically do not drive up and down Broadway. And this is a sad situation. You have to be very careful downtown as most people are driving intoxicated let's face it it's a drinking Music town and you're leaving the town you're intoxicated typically in this instance it was a very elderly person during the day but who knows about the people walking across the street they didn't see it happen it's very sad situation.
