Anyone hear about or see what happened on 280 north last night around 11pm before magdalena exit ?

Looked like the whole freeway was shut down, tons of fire crew and police. then I saw a black subie wagon 1/4 mile before the mayhem being questioned by chp.

The only thing I can find in the news about 280 is the stupid fire near downtown. I was gonna pull over on the southbound side to get a better look but I was crusin and wanted to get home.

Plus pulling over on the freeway is illegal unless an emergency lol.

Yeah unfortunately that was me in my wrb wagon talking to chp lol.. I've had better nights to say the least but basically I got rammed/pit maneuvered by another driver in some ghetto old dodge who went onto hit a couple other cars a half mile down.. ****er pulled some weird stunts behind me beforehand until i saw him roaring in from behind, downshifted and tried to pull on him but he still slammed into me, so i cant help but think it was malicious, fortunately nobody was hurt gf/I included, only the hit n run driver..

definitely saw a few scoobies pass while i was on the side of 280 after fish tailing/counter steering like my life depended on it.. and a friendly gsx-r turned around to signal to oncoming traffic to my relief til CHP showed up.. but yeah, I was in legitimate disbelief to say the least, glad my wagon was the only car that didnt end up in the dirt/drove him all the way home

Whoa, that's scary...seriously.

Saw wrxchase's wrx parked in San Mateo yesterday, looks solid. That interior would sure look peachy in my Forester...you don't live over across Hillsdale from the Habit burger place/Whole Foods do you? I see a white Camero over there a lot.

Crazy! It was dark and the wag looked black. I saw u standing outside with the chp so I figured u were either a witness, victim or dui lol.
I was going southbound so I only got a quick glimpse of everything.
Glad u are ok and glad I finally spotted someone! Under bad circumstances.

So whats in the future car wise for you?

Too many to remember. Those that stood out:
12:30pm-White GR wagon, possibly an STi, tinted windows, lowered, red RA flaps. Parked under the 280 on Hillcrest Ave in Millbrae. You looked like you just came back from a run or a ride.
2:00pm-in one of the Stanford parking lots(forgot which one). WRB bugeye, tints, rear spoiler, and black steelies on.

4:30pm-on Embarcadero and El Camino across from Stanford U. Dark blue GR sedan, tints, lowered, bike rack, exhaust.
