One student who saw the accident who wishes to remain anonymous said, “It was a bit spooky to see the cloud of dust lift and she was standing outside the car — obviously shaken. We assured Amanda that she had no cuts on her face and that her teeth were fine … I did notice she had been cut on her back.” The eyewitness saw Jamieson’s car flip over twice. The witness heard that Jamieson had no internal injuries and wishes Jamieson a speedy recovery. Jamieson could not be reached for comment.
