Dang!
As far as I know, there were no injuries...other than to the drivers pride and joy.

I think it's the guy that wanted to have his video screen active to watch movies.

Probably didn't respect or understand what improper throttle application can do. Once the rear end kicks out it is how hard and where.

Don't swerve for ANY animals! A friend of mine rolled his SUV a few years ago swerving to miss dog....had 400 lbs of tools in the back of his SUV....didn't get hurt, but could have easily been killed.
Maybe this guy did the same? Or maybe his kid took it out for a ride?

From what I was told, he had just come off a side street, guns blazing and the car came around on him. Once it hit the ditch, momentum did the rest.

Hate seeing that. Windshield frame is collapsed. It's supposed to be rated for rollover... imagine if that was a convertible.

Yes, that is very scary. No rollover protection at all.
