    and.......minor injuries!


    A 17 year old kid flipped a 1988 Ford T-Bird going over 100 mph jumping a local bridge called "Thrill Hill" on a dare. His two cousins and two friends sustained only minor injuries! 17 year olds think they are invincible. The newspaper said he flew 68 feet over the ground before landing.

    Very lucky on this one....except for the trucker

    Firefighters look over the remains of a car near Buellton on Thursday. With Port Hueneme Seabees' help, a mother and her two daughters were rescued from a BMW teetering on a bridge after a gravel truck rear-ended the car, then plunged into a creek, killing the trucker.

    - vcstar.com




    The forklift holding up the car was operated by Seabees on their way home to Port Hueneme.

    I fully expect this scene to be repeated in Seattle today since they are getting the Snowmaggedon
    (at least for Seattle standards.....and driver skills... as well as hills)

    Metro's motto in Portland and Seattle during this time..........."we'll get you there!"

    right!
