Default monster truck runs people over in IL

when reading the article yeah you feel bad for the people until you hear that everyone was standing close to the car crushing event.

i never understood why so many people insist on standing right next too or on the *** of a moving vehicle especially a ******* monster truck. At street races, at the drag strip and even in the parking lots of grocery stores the majority of the people do not understand that simple physics of 3000+ lbs of high tensile metal vs 180lbs soft skin, who would win...

What are you that blind that you can't see a monster truck on the screen? No wonder your car goes down the track crooked.
