    There is no traffic. He picked a good day to get chased.

    Is that a tool truck? And why don't the police stop in front of him, he is passing them with no problem.

    gosh, how long has it been going on? I assume there's a helicopter following it all?

    I tuned in after he crashed. I was hoping they would show a replay.

    I switched to CNN to see if it was being carried live, come back three seconds later to see it over.

    My whole office stopped working to watch the chase.

    We just got back to work.

    HOLY **** what a conclusion.

    I thought he was wearing a seat belt... how did he fly out like that?

    Guy started flying down I-10 at 9:20am.

    Drove towards Katy for 1.5 hours.

    Cops gave chase.

    Finally exited and went in the grass 10 minutes ago.

    His car struck a curb, tumbled a few times, and his body came flying out.

    Police and ambulance rush to the scene.

    It wasn't even a high-speed chase... he was going 65-70 the whole time.

    I go faster than that down Westheimer.

    Actually it started up on 290, he cut south through Fairbanks / N. Houston to I-10 and headed west.
