Is it glistening morning dew? His driving record was appalling - 11 convictions since for speeding and driving under the influence - in an area where driving is hardly an art. But it was not until he topped the crest of an incline in his Dodge while simultaneously trying to prevent one of his dogs rummaging in a beer cooler that Smith's life took on a wider public profile.
The van swerved off the road just as King, taking his regular four-mile walk, was returning from relieving himself in the woods. The impact threw the writer up and over the van, propelling him into a ditch 14 feet away. He kept asking what had happened. As they waited for help to arrive, Smith appeared nonchalant. He thought he'd hit a deer until he noticed King's bloody glasses on his front seat. The collision of metal and flesh, as well as the briefly conjoining fates of King and Smith, seemed fit for one of the author's books.
King is recovering from a shattered hip and pelvis, broken ribs, punctured lung and fractured thigh bone. And Smith, a drifter without much luck, is dead. I mean I have fantasies of confronting him,' King wrote in the extract. But what you're left with is this guy, who has the IQ of a tomato soup can. An empty tomato soup can. And he hits me at the one blind spot on a long road, no one else to hit for miles, when, say Nasa can't get a missile to land on Mars with all the brains and technology in the world, then you think there's something odd going on.
Or maybe Nasa should just hire Bryan Smith. Smith's death was widely reported in the US press and his life was largely reduced to that of a bit player in the life of the author. Reports played heavily on the connections between King's work and his chance encounter with Smith, using word play such as 'final chapter,' 'last few pages' and 'surprise ending'. Susan Stone, in a letter of complaint to the Bangor Daily News , the paper that first reported Smith's demise, wrote that she was disturbed by the 'callous manner' in which the paper reported his death and found it to be 'in extremely poor taste'.
But the intersection of fame and anonymity where King and Smith met did neither of them a favour. Before his death, Smith often said he felt singled out for harsher treatment because of King's celebrity. I'm being used as a guinea pig. I know I hit him. I didn't mean to. Somebody can't accept that. Why can't they accept that it was an accident?

There was often a note of self-pity in his comments to the press. King, who has undergone gruelling therapy after three weeks in hospital, was incensed when Smith described the crash as an 'accident without a cause' and chided prosecutors for making a deal with Smith that did not include any jail time and did not permanently revoke his licence. The incident caused friction within the small-town community that both called home.
Many Bangor residents believed that once King learnt of Smith's driving record the author used his influence against him.
