Car hits bridge
I don't think this was posted anywhere so here it is. It was on KQRS

Coming from a road design point, there is a flaw with those road barricades

Wow. The air that car got was incredible. What were the odds of them doing it in front of a police officer.

Re: Car hits bridge
too bad it wasn't a Toyota, he could have claimed that as unintended acceleration.

Re: Car hits bridge
Oh my lord! I think not sure but i think he was speeding and as he was approaching the car ahead he realized it was a cop and perhaps panic turned cause he was coming from the shoulder on the left. . .

Shit, almost looks like a suicide attempt imo.

On a side note, I hope it wasn't. And I hope he will be okay. Young people getting into deadly accidents bums me out.
