That hurts to watch it.

I had the same thing, sort of...a drunken illegal immigrant (thanks for nothing Obama) turned left in front of me. Fortunately I was going 35 mph in a 40 mph zone but I nearly died from the injuries.

Can’t imagine what it would be like if someone was going three times that speed.

A long time ago, a fellow who had sipped a few beers pulled out in front of me. I wasn’t injured but he was knocked over into the passenger seat, unconscious, with his foot caught between the brake and gas.

As I watched, the car began to move, then picked up speed as it jumped over the median, the sidewalk and then flew across a parking lot - finally hanging on a berm — with the back wheels in the air, engine floored and smoke pouring from the engine bay!

I ran over, reached and killed the engine and pulled him out. He was hospitalized for a few days but okay.

Unfortunately, he ruined my sweet Tr7 convertible.
