# Borrowed Power

hit and run accident: squealing of brakes; police pull over speeding car; man denies guilt; testing stopping distances and reaction time of cars and drivers; child at crosswalk working as crossing guard; two drivers have words with each other; young people tell their story to judge; commercial aircraft lands \[All American airline\]; bulldozer; parents look extremely miserable in judge's chamber; man gets license suspended for six months; • 43:30:25- 43:51:10 Series of shots. Starts with overview of two cars facing each other—one is trying to pass the other on a thin road. We pass a small town (looks like historic Brookville, Maryland). Cut to a man walking down the sidewalk of a neighborhood street toward an intersection. Cut to a close-up of a nice, old stop sign. We hear the screeching of brakes. • 49:17:29- 49:33:08 Nice images of a small town—little boy safety guards direct other children at an intersection. We see the middle-class neighborhood streets around them.
