    Anyway, what I really want to know is...where can I find out more about what the idiot was thinking? Because it almost seems like he wanted to pass the cop car on the left shoulder at 100MPH.
    I think they said a pontiac firebird this morning on the news.

    It certainly looks like a Firebird to me... perhaps the car was distraught over the news of GM dropping Pontiac...

    Do you still live under a highway overpass, or have you upgraded?

    What. An. Idiot. No reason to be going that fast on the highway, especially given how many other lives you're putting at risk there.

    After watching this episode of MythBusters, I'll probably never drive that fast ever again. Although in my collegiate stupidity, I did drive my car 110 mph on the I-35 stretch from Des Moines to Ames. Took me only 15 minutes to get from downtown Des Moines to US 30. I was impressed at the time. Nowadays I can only shake my head at my stupidity.

    The dumpster I'm in now is in a bit more of a quiet neighborhood. I couldn't deal with all the traffic.

    It's hard to tell but it almost looks like the car his the bridge with the bottom of the car. It goes spinning and looks like it rolls back too before it hits. Dude is crazy lucky.

    I agree. Either suicide or texting (whats the difference anyways)...but you can see that he doesn't even hit the brakes until after hitting the guardrail while airborn. I am no accident investigator but should be.
