People need to slow it down ! There always spinning out acting like they have no sense !!! Highway 4A is 55 going around a curve but 35 on a strate road …..does not make any sense !!! Grow up people ….
Glad there was no injuries, looked like it was a fine Buick lesabre. But if it went airborne and hit the trees, why didn’t the airbags come out? #wheretheairbags
Of course when the real driver is found he/she will deny wrecking, that someone stole the car, etc. Very common practice in the north end of the county.
Looks like Johnson Ford will be pulling out some records!
