Bobbie, the word "pavement" can apply to things other than roads. that phrase just isn't specific enough as to what happened with no mention of driving prior to it. Saying you "dropped a wheel" sounds like you were carrying it and it slipped thru your hands. that the vs says it's at night is irrelevant.
I said you don't get t-boned by wheels and you inadvertantly agreed by saying Tanya was t-boned by a truck. that's what would happen. It's not up to me to describe what happened, it's up to YOU. Songs don't have 200 word intros to explain them before they start. as your lyric is now, it's murky and takes way too long to describe being saved from a car wreck. that could be done in 4 lines, not verse after verse plus a tag. The story needs clarifying, the imagery needs to be more accurate and the moral needs to be sharper. otherwise it just tailgates Jesus Take the Wheel without the moral.
