smoothdime Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 wow that sucks. i guess he wasnt smart enough to either install or use a fuel cut off or something to keep it from continuing on its rampage! glad no one was killed. i bet he had some people looking for him after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zachm89 Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 Man that sucks but has the idiot never heard of a fuel cut off switch!? Jesus Christ, you'd think with all the money he probably had in that car the moron would have some kind of kill switch. If I was any one of the people he rammed into I'd be more than pissed. Luckily no one was seriously injured...could have been a lot worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnss Posted February 26, 2011 Report Share Posted February 26, 2011 wow thats just crazy. im glad nobody was badly injured. could have been really bad. i agree on having a fuel cut off. but also why would he have not slammed it in neutral or park. i have had my throttle stick open on me once in my camaro. first thing i did was throw the car into neural then shut it off. unless it was a lenco trans or something.
