Viper Wreck on 78 in NJ 6/15/08
Sad to see. Looks like a silver car SRT?

Re: Viper Wreck on 78 in NJ 6/15/08
Does anyone know who this is?? Was this a NJ member?? My sympathies go out to the family and friends. I read the comments below the article and its amazing how heartless people can be. Girlfriend stated it felt like the wheel fell off. Curious to know if this was an '08 model?

Re: Viper Wreck on 78 in NJ 6/15/08
That's sad and I hope the driver is going to be OK. If they survived several rollovers it had to be a coupe. I can't imagine anyone walking away from several rollovers in a vert.

Re: Viper Wreck on 78 in NJ 6/15/08
I have heard of wheels cracking. Wonder what year this car was and wonder what kind of wheels was on the car. Come on, only 5 to 10 MPH over the speed limit. Something let loose. Bummer

Re: Viper Wreck on 78 in NJ 6/15/08
I can't believe how people are jumping to conclusions about this just because it was a Viper. I was hit by a semi on 95 in Richmond about a year ago in my Mercedes coupe - backed up traffic for 6 miles. I'm sure people saw what was left of my little red coupe and figured I was speeding or doing something stupid, [i]when I was the one that was hit by a reckless driver!!![i]
People need to learn all the FACTS before they start posting about how "stupid" someone was acting.

Re: Viper Wreck on 78 in NJ 6/15/08
That is so sad, my thought's and prayers go out to the family.
What a bunch of morons commenting below. Just because it was a Viper everybody assumes he was driving like an idiot or speeding.  He could have been in any car and the same thing would have happened if the wheel fell off.

Re: Viper Wreck on 78 in NJ 6/15/08
They (newspapers, TV, ...) wrote/told the same covering my accident (doing 50-55 mph) 4 years ago.
"HE was speeding/racing in his race car"............................BS! |
