Untimely ripped from my sleep

At precisely 5 am this morning there was a car accident in the intersection outside of our house. It woke me up. I couldn't see what happened from our window, because we're lower than the road. I wondered if I should call 911. As I wondered I thought, "well they probably have cell phomes, everyone does". I also heard the people upstairs stirring and thought, "maybe they'll call". I also could hear the tone of voice of the people outside. No one seemed really panicked, like someone was hurt, so I didn't think it was a bad accident. Around 5:05 a fire truck or something pulled up. Not bad. So, was I apathetic about the accident? I was concerned, but it didn't sound too bad. I could have checked, and maybe I should have, but I suppose things turned out OK.
The only trace at 7:30 this morning when I went out there was some broken tail light plastic in the middle of the road. I didn't sleep very well the rest of the morning. Too bad, I was sleeping so well before that...
