Chrysler 300 wreck - driver was doing over 140

The officers at the scene estimated the car was going over 140 mph when it hit. The articles said the car was a Chrysler 300. Sad to see....

I didn't read anywhere where it said it was related to street racing.

two more young people dead for no reason.looking at that,i would say they didn't suffer.thanks for the post.kinda makes you think.we had a guy here in louisville a couple of months ago that took a dodge challenger out for a test drive with the salesman in the car with him.the salesman told him to see what it would do.well ,the guy opens it up and hits another car at over 100 miles an hour and killed two people in the other car.he is on trial here now charged with 2 counts of manslaughter.i have not heard what the liability is for the dealership or salesman.just needless,stupid acts yhat take peoples lives.

I don't feel sorry for the guy - his passenger though... nobody deserves to die because of another's stupidity.

Speeding?

I'd be inclined to agree. Racing implies competition. Speeding is just speeding.

Both, however, are stupid things to do.

You are right that it was instantaneous. its my understanding they were decapitated on impact.
