According to NBC affiliate WYFF 4, a 23-year-old man was taken to a hospital in Clemson, South Carolina after being struck by an SUV. Authorities say that Jimmy Dixon yelled "go" before attempting to dash across the intersection of Highway 123 and College Avenue at around 9 p.m. Monday. He didn't get far before bouncing off of the front of a 2010 <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/lexus">Lexus</a> SUV. <br />
<br />
Dixon was transported to Anderson Memorial Hospital where he remains in stable condition. In a refreshing dose of common sense, WYFF 4 NBC reports that the authorities have no intention of charging the driver of the SUV.<br />
<br />
We can't help but wonder how well Dixon would have fared against the flotilla of rolling logs, alligators and snapping turtles on the other side of the road had he made it across the highway. Here's hoping he doesn't try a repeat performance.<br />
