From the path it looks like he hit the median and lost control of his his car. Maybe someone cut him off or he was trying to make a quick maneuver when the lane splits, hits the curbs loses control, and goes off road and down the tree.
Reporters in OP were saying a solar vehicle maybe a solar flare followed by a huge coronal mass ejection caused a surge of power?
Yes, they said he was traveling northbound on Hawthorne. But, his vehicle is on the southbound side of the road. There is a median in the middle of the road. It took me a little while to figure out how he ended up where he did.
That's interesting. Driving an unfamiliar car has caused people to mistake the brake pedal for the gas pedal. Doesn't look like that happened here, though. Unfortunately, they'll probably find pain pills in his system.
so youre saying that you didnt love that post long time? sounds like the wreck could be a career killer, but if he was DWI or DUI id say he is out of second chances in the court of public opinion.
I imagine covid isolation factored into his risky driving. Probably the wrong outlet to vent... Hope he recovers well. He just likes dark humor.
