I was wondering if this story would show up here. It happened about 2 miles from my place.

I notice in the vid that the car hits what appears to be a jump, then the rear end clips the guard rail sending the passenger side of the car into the overpass. Looks planned (well, not the outcome...)

Some info available locally that preceded this event...He is a 19yr old from about 40min South of town. He was detained 15 min prior to the wreck by local police after he was found parked at 5am at a closed bowling alley with a local 15yr old female with alcohol and a pipe used to smoke the wacky weed. The girl was released to her father and he was released with a court summons after being given a sobriety test and determined to be sober. He then left, hit the highway and was passing vehicles on the median berm doing 100+ mph. He made it about ten miles before this happened. All of his friends and family are telling the local media what a good kid he is .... LOL

I just drove past the location a few minutes ago on my way to pick up my second key for the Vibe.There is a drain grate sunk in the ground about 4'-5' deep next to the guard rail. I always though he caught the incline on the gaurd rail, but it looks like he went down into the drain area and back up at a pretty steep incline.

Holy Carp is right! He was almost a Darwin award winner, right there. LOL @ the Knightrider and DOH references. Looks like the NHTSA will be investigating another vehicle stuck accelerator issue.
