| Lead slingin' Parrot Head  |
Reportedly, the 25 year old driver was drunk and had a criminal driving record. There was a truck pulling a trailer at the off-ramp stop sign that had just made a right hand turn away from the 'flight' but would most likely have been impacted if he had turned left. The overpass is reported to be busy with a lot of traffic, including a lot of gravel trucks, but thankfully there was a gap in traffic at the moment he went airborne. Driver climbed out the back window of the wreck with nothing more than a gash on his head and was talking to those who stopped to help. He caught some impressive air. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rgrCjKfkduo | ||

And a Gold Wing rider fails to make the jump on the Main Street Bridge in Daytona. Had to be alcohol involved here too. The guy survived I guess, was clinging to his bike when he was rescued. https://www.clickorlando.com/t...e-dangling-off-side/ _____________________ Be careful what you tolerate.

Due needs more practice, if you don't stick the landing the jump doesn't count. I've stopped counting. | |||

That almost looks like it could be in my neck of the woods but the patrol car at the scene is not Minnesota. Michigan maybe? Anyway the dudes got a awesome video to go along with his story! "Fixed fortifications are monuments to mans stupidity" - George S. Patton | |||

Maybe they will rename the street 'Hazzard Drive'? _________________________________________________________________________ “A man’s treatment of a dog is no indication of the man’s nature, but his treatment of a cat is.

Well, because I watched the video in the OP a few times, YouTube is now pumping similar car jump videos my way. Figured I might as well roll with it, so you guys get a bonus video. Not as impressive as the first one, but entertaining nonetheless. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ONmHI1D_5_w | |||
