another highway 9 accident

On my drive home from school today, I heard about a major accident on highway 9 by sanborn road. That is right by the skinny bridge. I was wondering if anyone has any information about it. I'm hoping it wasn't some "touge racer" kid, causing more police to eat donuts on that road.

No, I mean -1 for touge.

Drifting around blind turns is more stupid then just driving fast around a turn and staying in your lane. Both are illegal though.

Anyways... I hope they are OK, and learned a lesson if they were being dumb.

Don't know if he was drifting or not but it was a Ford Explorer over the side.

Who said anything about drifting? I think you misunderstand what touge is, but I agree with you, the #1 thing that pisses me off over anything else is people going over the double yellow.

yeah, every thing I have seen about 'touge' always mentions drifting, so I ***ociated touge with drifting which usually means going over the dubba-yellow.
