Kohones Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 Not only am I not interested in losing my license, but this kind of stuff happens all over the country. I like places like Norwalk, no telephone poles, only risk is basically to myself! Thanks for posting this though / it should serve as a reminder to ALL of us -- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Science Abuse Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 look at the pic, that kid should be dead!? How do you survive that car folding like that? "He normally doesn't race," said Steve Breuer, a friend of Cooney. "He knows his car is fast, so he doesn't race it on the street. He knows better.Soooo whats done to that integra to lift it from the Slow and make it actualy fast? There were no skidmarks, indicating that Cooney's car hit the pole at full force, Hamrick reported. Cooney was pinned between the pole and the passenger door.So maybe he didn't know what was going on? He hit the pole sideways, so there had to me a mark somewhere, unless he never tried to correct or brake. Drivers ed classes need to teach more shit then just law, it's that simple.

BiG BeN Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 those images show a wooden pole,generally in residential, low speed areas. the ones near the freeways are the break away steel models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
