    I do not understand how these types of accidents happen on a city street? It's not like these streets are interstates! I'm glad that the person was rescued:)

    Who knows? Speeding? Texting? Drinking?

    I saw one of these cars still on the side of the road today. I'd put my money on street racing based on the the vehicle.

    Was one of those cars a gray Honda?
