It's funny how that is ending up all over national news now. My wife drove by that Monday morning like 5 minutes after it happened. She said she saw the emergency vehicles entering the highway and like a mile later traffic was stopped. The car was obliterated with significant chunks of metal on both sides of the highway. It's still amazing the dude survived (thrown from vehicle prior to collision with overpass), but it's not like it's any great victory for society...

Passing cars in the shoulder is retarded! If he was a good driver, he wouldn't need to use the shoulder and he would have just weaved through traffic lol...but even doing that is pretty stupid.

He is lucky that he hit a part of the guardrail first as the car was catapulted in the air and the rear of the car was impacted first ( looks like to me), if it would have been a full frontal impact, he would not be here IMHO.

Senseless, the sad part, is that someone else will go out and exercise the same poor choice/judgement.

thankfully no one else was hurt.

it always seems that the innocent in accidents like these die, and the person who causes them lives.

Glad to hear that yu are adjusting....hey I have an idea, why don't you create a Phen's China Adventure thread.....curious to see how much you get to do in China besides work....

Hey, I like that idea. I'll try to start that now. I would have done it last night but the internet wasn't working in the apartment yesterday.

Niceee, I've been thinking about an ipod kit, but I have the aux input already. Using the steering wheel controls would be nice though
