A Florida woman’s car went airborne while driving in Georgia after her car traveled up the ramp of a parked tow truck and flew more than 100 feet.
The incident happened May 24 on U.S. 84 in Lowndes County, according to body camera footage. A Lowndes County Sheriff’s deputy was responding to a car accident on the opposite side of the highway’s grass median. While the deputy was at the crash scene, his body camera recorded the car drive up the back ramp of the lowered tow truck ramp before taking flight for approximately 120 feet, flipping and rolling over in the process, according to WCTV in Georgia.

That’s crazy.
...maybe she wanted to get a jump on the guy in the slow lane!
Make sure an aluminum baseball bat is thrown in.
Evel had been known to use one.
Florida woman imitates the Dukes of Hazzard ping.

I learned something reading one of the tweets about this... apparently, a total of 317 Dodge Chargers were used during the making of the Dukes of Hazard shows.
This video has been added to my PowerPoint presentation I use when teaching the airborne equations to my Traffic Crash Reconstruction students.

Would that be a quick crash course?
She’ll be called Bo Duke for the rest of her life.
The tow truck did have its lights on, dumb witch tore them off when she hit the truck.
Very quick indeed.
BOOKMARK
I saw where someone added the Dukes theme song to it on Twitter yesterday!
She was probably going 75 mph and in the left lane and didn’t realize that the tow truck was stopped (no flashing lights) and her attention got diverted by the roll over wreck in the median.
What kind of fool tow truck driver stops his truck in the left lane and lowers the ramp without any warning lights for oncoming traffic?
There should have been a State Trooper with emergency lights on blocking that lane, regardless, the blame lies entirely with the tow truck driver. The ranking officer at scene failed to manage the accident scene.
My son is a trucker. He parks his pickup all week at a small truck stop while he’s on the road. The truck stop is near a freeway exit where drivers must turn right or left.
One night at 2am, a drunk driver decided to go straight and pulled a Duke’s of Hazzard imitation over the embankment, flew about 30 feet and drove right into the only pickup truck in the parking lot. My son’s truck.
It also got caught on video.
We must not have watched the same video.
Bandit : Then jump me!
Don’t text and drive note tires squealing about one second before ramp jump.
Daisy Duke just couldn’t resist.
“I’ll show them boys how a real woman does it “.
lol.
That is a shame how many were destroyed filming this show.
I think that was in the movie”Every which way but lose”.🤔
