I hope they make it out okay.

It is definitely a fourth gen, but I can't tell if it's a TA or a Camaro.

Looks like it had the CETA mod.

On related news, on my way back from the track, this lady in a jeep on the opposite lane flashes her headlight at me, so I slow down thinking there are cops down the road (I was going 7 miles over the limit).

As I slow down, I notice this Dodge charger speeding behind me passes me on the no pass lane. I'm like WTF??.
I then look forward and theres like 3 cars and a truck on the right side of the road and this lady waving people down with her arms.
The charger pulls over to side quick as **** and the driver jumps out of the car, throws his phone on the ground and runs towards the ditch on the side of the road. He seemed desperate but the lady held him back.

As I drove by them, I saw a bike, all fucked up on the grass and like 15 feet away, 3 people standing by some guy on the ground. This guy was all dirty, almost like he met the ground in a violent fashion, he was on his side, motionless...

I couldn't see the victim's face, so I'm not sure if he was wearing a helmet, but from the reaction of the lady and the driver of the dodge, things didn't look too good. The guy was only wearing shorts and a white t-shirt.

There was also a pick up truck there with an older lady humped over the steering wheel (maybe she hit the biker?) But she had a numb expression on her face...

We all need to be more careful, specially when we drive. Bad things can happen very quickly.

on my way back form tampa today there was a bmw or something on its roof on the highway by itself. (dont remember where, i had just looked up from my movie) im guessing the guy tried to jump out of the wrong entrance and get back on the highway.
(there were tracks in the grass)
i just thought to myself was it really worth it to try and swerve back onto the highway just to avoid a 2 minute delay???
