Default Corvette Crash

Apparently this guy crashed into the parked truck at significant speed.


He just veered into the shoulder and didn't appear to be committing suicide.

Sad.

I work at a photo-lab, and the other day the police dropped off rolls of film for an investigation. They had taken pics of a C5 that flew off the bend in a road, and nosed first into a telephone pole. Parts of the car were embedded way up that pole. The car just disintigrated on impact. Biggest evident piece, in the pics, to recognize it was a C5 was the driver's door panel.
