Speeding 370z driver skewered by guard rail in Irving, TX.

Z Ninja · 01-31-2015, 06:36 PM

"The man was driving around 100 mph and may have been drunk when he lost control of his car on northbound 161 near Belt Line Road around 3:15 a.m. Thursday."

"When his car hit the guard rail, it impaled his car as it came up underneath the floor board behind the driver's wheel well."

So you're telling me if I drive 100mph and hit a guard rail it could puncture thru the car?

Plus he was drunk?

I hope it wasn't a member here but he deserved it. And I'm glad it was a single car accident and that wasn't another vehicle he decided to swap some paint with.

Ouch.

There is a big investigation going on about one companies guardrails being unsafe. When a car hits it, it doesn't crumple, it goes through the car.

kenchan · 01-31-2015, 08:52 PM

Yah but the last time I hit a rail was never..

Ah, no, he didn't deserve it. But given the condition he was in at the time, it's not surprising he was in a crash. Good thing he's the only one who was injured.

I'd say he deserved to f*ck his car up, but not almost get killed. Either way I doubt he'll be doing anything that stupid ever again.

Karma level: guardrail.

takjak2 · 02-01-2015, 09:05 PM

Should have gotten a sport model.

Amazing that he lived considering where that guardrail is sitting.

Got_Z · 02-01-2015, 09:10 PM

I wonder if he'll still do a part out...
