This can't be serious," Will toldThey put on the broken-down pickup truck's flashers and decided to push it into a field across the street.
As the teens tried to move the truck off the road, they spotted another truck headed in their direction.

Their mother, Alicia Hinson, watched the crash unfold live on a home security camera. The video captured her running outside seconds later . "My heart just dropped. I knew that my boys had been run over. So I took off running out of the house. And as a mom watching that live, it's something you don't want to see," Alicia said.They grabbed a sledgehammer and used it to break the window, helping free the driver and passenger out of the truck. Their conditions have not been released.Will Hinson, who's been driving for only six months, said that's not what matters.
