thats pretty much the nastiest non-racing related crash I've ever seen.

 

woosh, bounce, KABOOM!

Happened yesterday near Cincy. The 19 y/o driver, who was ejected, was alive and in critical condition 12 hours after the accident. No news in the last 16 hours at request of family. He is 19, a student at the Cincy Art Academy and had a job. Was "interviewed" by police 1 hour before accident in a pkg lot where he had an unopened beer and drug paraphernalia, and a young female passenger. Hard to fathom his motives (if any) for such bizarre behavior. Fortunately the female was not in the car when he went airborne.

It is always catastrophic when someone drives a car when distraught. I think we have become desensitized to the true power of 3000lbs of steel travelling at speed.

A little more air and he would have cleared the bridge completely.

Thank goodness he hit the pillar of the bridge or he would have

went into oncoming traffic. Lord knows how many people that might

have killed.
