I venture a guess he didn't spill his beer.

If you can see the video clearly enough, the car rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise in the air - putting the passenger side into the bridge. That's the only thing that saved his stupid a$$. |

May the bird RIP. This is a good example of why we need to keep the speed on the track. What the hell was he thinking?

I'm thinking he was passing on the shoulder at a high rate of speed and lost traction with all the debris on the shoulder. It was kinda cool the way it launched right off the guard rail. Its like he was trying for a jump shot and failed. |

There's been some speculation that it was an attempted suicide and I'm starting to agree. He was arrested with drugs, alcohol and a minor female and released shortly before the accident. I believe I also read that his father came to get him and was arrested for having drugs in his posession. "Dad's gonna kill me when he gets home"... Maybe he was trying to save him the trouble. I am starting to have trouble seeing this as just an accident.

If only he had subframe connectors...
