Was he an aspiring musician trying to join the 27 Club?

“Guess he watched too many movies where those little bars just move out of the way when cars hit them.”

Another reason not to believe everything you see movies.

No, I meant why, if he was an American citizen from California, was he speeding to get back IN to the country. He should have had no problem being accepted back in. He looked as if he did not want to be inspected.

My guess is impatient SOB. I see people driving on feeder roads at high rates of speed or backing up or going the wrong way on entrance ramps to leave a congested highway.

You’d see much less of that if they’d install toilets in cars.

Yike. What a horrible way to go for a petty behavior, if that was it.
