…what I was thinking. Looks like controlled flight into terrain.Was he braking or accelerating? That grass clump that is sticking up looks like he may have been accelerating. Wouldn't it be leaning in the opposite direction if he was braking? And, would there be skid marks on the sidewalk if braking? Just asking.
Yeah, that does look odd. Hit the gas, when they meant to hit the brake?
Pretty sure there’s skid marks somewhere else, too! ?Was he braking or accelerating? That grass clump that is sticking up looks like he may have been accelerating.

This was in Irvine. Cop was like...this again? Nothing out of the ordinary.So no one is questioning if there was another explanation? Like, maybe they were runoff the road by another vehicle? ??
Long ago I was teaching someone to drive. We were on a fairly empty two-lane road in Southern California. A pickup came toward us and drifted into our lane. My student yanked the wheel to the right, floored the gas as we ran off the road, overcorrected to the left, ran across the road, through a ditch, a metal fence, and underneath a Cessna-172 aircraft parked on the airport ramp we'd just entered, lifting it over the Celica, bashing the windshield, and scratching the hell out of both vehicles, finally coming to a stop when I yelled "stop!" right as we plowed into a second aircraft (should'a said it sooner, so bad on me). People panic. Explaining it to my insurance company was fun. Talk about maxing out your coverage ...Looking at 3 cars of damage, it might be closer to distracted driver for $8,000 Alex.
These are heavy trucks with low centers of gravity. Heavier than like-sized ICE trucks.So no one is questioning if there was another explanation? Like, maybe they were runoff the road by another vehicle? ??
