Just happened today. My thoughts and prayers to the Lt.

 

Sad, wonder how that happened though. That's going to look bad if they were screwing around with the car and wrecked because of it. Btw... Barack Obama is hardly a communist.

 

Based on the road I saw in the video they were not straight and probably punched the gas. You CAN NOT do that in a Viper, even more so when you are not aware/ready for what will happen.

Most Viper wrecks are

1. New owners
2. Rentals
3. Dealer employees

 

Seems like a lot of those exotic rentals get wrecked like that.

 

Sad incident indeed, but why were two "on-duty" officers in a rented viper?

 

That's kind of what I was wondering...

 

There should be some kind of road class required for high horse powered cars, before they are rented or sold. I guess I would rent to a police officer, being that they do get driving training. Just not in high horse powered cars. Vipers and Crown Vics respond very differently when you put the hammer down.

 

sad....

 

Very sad. I hate that for both familys!
