I finally broke down last week and purchased a new camera. I was out on Saturday, November 11, 2015 working with it and getting to know the camera in front of the Mirage Hotel and Casino when I heard a load crash and turned around and saw a Shuttle Bus and a Cab had collided.
Thank god there were no injuries. And you can tell from the photo's that it was the Cab Drivers fault.
This is what I saw as I turned around and looked in the direction of the noise.
