The body of a man being transported to Shreveport, Louisiana fell from the back of a hearse and onto a busy Dallas freeway Tuesday. Dallas television station KTVT obtained photographs from the scene showing a gurney on its side and the man's body partially uncovered. A police report from the Dallas Police Department indicates someone called police saying they had just spotted a body on a gurney with a blanket over it lying in the middle of State Highway 175.
The investigating officer says he was met at the scene by two witnesses who saw the gurney fall onto the freeway. The officer says the man an SUV-style hearse stated the back door to his vehicle came open and the man's body fell out of the back. When he realized what had happened, the man returned to the scene to retrieve the body. Authorities say the body was being transported to a Shreveport funeral home after the man died Monday at a hospital in Mesquite, Texas.

Nothing surprises me anymore...LOL
Ni doubt! I worked down there for a couple years back in the late 90's. Traffic sucks! everybody ding 70 MPH with about 3 feet between bumpers. Scared the willy's out of me. I live in north Idaho. Our idea of a traffic jam is a slow snow plow.

can the back doors fly open in an SUV without knowing immediately? If the SUV is a pickup truck and the back doors are a tailgate. There would still be a bump and some noise.
