"When you #LiveFast, there's no definite set of rules"
Well there's definitely physics.
Yep...
Yeah, I read that...Thanks
but who is he?
He had stated a while back that he was a Christian.
Dear G-d in heaven.
I’m so sorry for your loss.
Looking closely, 2nd pic, appears his CA license plate is sticking up above the front fender. Bodies appear towards the rear of the vehicle, under the tarp. If true and his friend was driving his vehicle, that would have been his final mistake.
You are correct about high performance vehicles.
As for “Phantom Vehicles,” I only know what I’ve read in the Traffic Collision Reports.
Regarding single vehicle collisions, those are people who allege they were cutoff, swerved avoiding other vehicles, dogs, deer etc, etc....Out of every hundred who’ve claimed this, probably less than 5 are telling the truth..
Most single car collisions are caused by intoxication, not paying attention, or traveling too fast for conditions.
True.
Mom’s never leave.
From comments in the local paper, you’d be led to believe that both walker and the driver were experienced in driving high performance cars... They were leaving a charity event hosted by a common business interest (a performance car and racing company), and comments in the article lead me to believe it may have been the owner (Roger Rodas) of the car shop/race team that was at the wheel... If so, he had plenty of experience driving these cars (and racing them... Albeit, not through business parks).
Very sad, prayers. Irony alert.
So true. God bless you, fatima.
Reports are that the owner of the performance shop was driving the car... While he apparently made his living as a pretty good wealth advisor, he was an entrepreneur as owner of the performance shop, and had quite a bit of experience racing sport cars as an amateur (and quite a bit of success last year racing Porsches)
I had my post removed as I forgot he wasn’t driving. Still, I don’t care if you the best driver in the world, save the fast driving for the track. Not the street.
