VIDEO: Man using Facebook Live while speeding seriously injured in crash
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - Police say a Rhode Island man who streamed himself on Facebook Live speeding and weaving in and out of traffic was seriously injured when he crashed into a garbage truck and a concrete barrier.
State police say 20-year-old Onasi Olio-Rojas, of Pawtucket, lost control Wednesday on U.S. Route 6 in Providence.
The video was posted on Olio-Rojas' Facebook page and shows him driving at speeds exceeding 100 mph and weaving through traffic. Police confirmed its authenticity to WJAR-TV.

A lucky almost-Darwin Award winner.
Needs a dashcam, driving while holding a cellphone can be dangerous...
Gee, that's what the Mexicans in my town do, too, and they kill innocent people while doing it.
The death of this felon may have saved several innocent lives.
Or a helmet with a GoPro attached.
Not only did he do something that could get him fined and possibly jailed, but he recorded himself doing it. Seriously stupid - stupid enough to be a democrat party voter.
It’s amazing how technology can separate the stupid from the rest. It’s too bad that sometimes the innocent get caught in the middle.
Facebook dead.
Oh, so politically correct, regarding Obama's son putting many other lives at risk but authorities have to ponder whether what he did is wrong?
I’m speechless. Unbelievable bad judgement. Trying to be cool.
The ‘music’ sounds like monotone babbling.
Probably effects the thought patterns of the listener.
Stay off of social media period.
Hands free calling only...
No texting at all. Pull over if you must.
Yeah, but by modern standards he’s a hero because he got it up on the internet. What would be even cooler is if there had been another camera to film his crash, that’d get a million hits on Youtube.
Is he a deportable?
"Authorities are still searching for a motive"
Hey guys! Watch me rob this bank!
A garbage truck and a concrete barrier, that’ll do ya.
He’ll probably sue Facebook, the waste disposal company, and the RI DOT.
Instant karma!
