Accident 101N This AM (San Bruno)

On my way into work this morning, passed an accident in the fast lane...looks like it involved a pickuptruck and a silver bug eye wrx (sedan). Hard to tell much beyond that b/c the subie was overturned, i just noticed the bug eye's.

If it's anyone on here, I hope you are ok and the ambulance that was behind me with its lights flashing was just a precaution...

be careful out there people the roads are no joke today or any day there is a storm.

godspeed and goodluck.......

damn straight, it was crazy on HWY 17-S/N this morning.
Luckily I drive southbound in the morning and very few vehicles on my side of the road.

It's amazing how sturdy the cabin of these cars is, anyone remember the posted video of the 02-03 that got smooshed between two semi-trucks?

That was my buddy's car...he walked away from it with just a bit of soreness.

Subarus ROCK!

He got cleared at the hospital.

We think it was his balding stockers hydroplaning.... He was going 60 mph and when he hit the puddle, the car veered left, hit the guardrail driver's side front corner, spun and then hit the rear corner at which point he thinks the car flipped and ended up on the roof.

the roof didn't collapse and he just had to kick out the driver's side window and crawl out.

He's commute is only 10 minutes BTW, so no one is really immune to freak accidents like that...you just never know.

Glad your friend is okay!

But driving with bald tires in the rain is not a freak accident but negligent maintenance of the vehicle.
