    Don't people know how to drive anymore? An awful lot of hit & runs, buildings being run into and people blowing through yellow and even red lights lately.

    The flames were huge. It was almost like the seats were doused with gasoline or something flammable. I've never seen a car burn that fast before.

    Leon, was the car abandoned after the crash, or was the driver still on the scene?

    Anyone get any pictures?

    Sounds like something that happened in Detroit about 20 years ago to me. I'm not the type to gossip or anything though.
