Anyone drive by this? A Ford Crown Vic I think…The person drove this full speed into the guard rail…the entire front is gone! Injuries reported too. It appeared to be the one vehicle…so this leads me to believe that possibly an older person, maybe a medical issue??? Not sure but it appeared serious. ---

yeah…I was late to work today because of the smashed up car…there was an old guy standing next to it, talking with a cop. I didn’t see anyone hurt but they may have already been taken to the hospital when I saw it. They need to retest old people’s ability to drive. ---

Passed by it on the way in. The front end was destroyed and part of it (sheet metal) was on the other side of the road near the 990 entrance. Looked pretty bad, but no clue why there were 7 other unrelated cars sitting on the side of the road blocking traffic also. ---
