What do you think the odds are that alcohol was involved? (or have I just become way too jaded?)

Not possible, she was under the drinking age and we know she would never break the law, right?

There needs to be a law that states if you car-surf you must wear a helmet. ...problem fixed.

The crash is under investigation...

How long does it take to type "Idjit on roof of moving car" on a police report?

Car surfing definitely ranks as one of the dumber things I ever did as a teenager.

I was driving down the highway one day, solo, no other traffic around, my T-top Camaro on cruise control and tracking straight so I decided to see how long I could go riding the bar. About a mile and a half later, when the road curved I climbed back in on the passenger side, slid over and took back the wheel.

Ahh, the stupidity of youth. I must have a guardian angel looking out for me.

"Jackson was flown to an Indianopolis hospital with a serious head injury."

Sounds like a serious head injury happened sometime prior.
