Do not speed pass a cop and always wear you belt!

Post by Dave »

The driver has been identified as Brennan S. Eden. He was undergoing surgery as of 4 p.m. Monday.
The specific cause of the crash has not yet been determined, but Ohio State Highway Patrol Lt. Marty Fellure said crash investigators are looking into whether speed played a factor. The investigators also will test for alcohol, which is a routine procedure.

I think anytime I would pass a squad car, there would be some "beverage" and speeding involved

Eden was seriously injured and flown to Miami Valley Hospital via a CareFlight helicopter, according to Fellure.

The accident happened about 7:15 a.m. Monday, Aug,. 23. Eden was driving a 1985 Pontiac Firebird south along the highway when the car went left of center and struck a culvert, which launched the car into the air until it struck the Wagner Road overpass. The Firebird disintegrated into many pieces. Eden was ejected and came to rest on the right berm of southbound I-675.
Investigators don’t know how fast Eden was driving but suspect he was traveling in excess of the 65 mph speed limit

Unreal, the closest to that I have ever seen was in Phoenix when I was in school, somebody running from a cop was going so fast when he hit the pillar of the overpass the car went up the pillar and hit the bottom of the overpass. That car too was destroyed. People never cease to amaze me.

I think its still fixable....... A little duck tape and wire, maybe some welding, and it would be ready to drive again.... :mrgreen:
