Ever See A Car Do An Aerial 360 After Running A Red Light? Now You Can [Video]
It has never cease to amaze me in all the years that I have been driving everything from taxi cabs to dual-axle delivery trucks the amount of stupid things people when they get behind the steering wheel of their vehicles.
This story out of Rosselle Park in New Jersey is a perfect example of vehicular stupidity but lucky for this person they survived.
In an attempt to beat a red light the driver hit a car in the crossing, was sent into the ramped concrete divider which saw the vehicle launched into an airborne 360 and into a light pole.
American Traffic Solutions, the company who has the contract to manage the red light cameras for Rosella Park has gotten a lot of flack over posting the video of the accident but defended their move of posting the video by saying people need to understand just what can happen when they run red lights.
