Integra Wreck on San Felipe

My buddy was the driver of the vehicle that crashed yesterday, he has 12 broken ribs and the passenger in the front seat has a fractured skull and is currently on life support. I'll add more details after I visit him in the hospital today.

Been in two severe suby wrecks in the past 4 months. nothing is more frightening than crashing a car. I was lucky. I'll be praying for your friends and thier families.

most likely, hope all of them pull through. If the passenger dies wouldn't the driver be responsible?

nah, he had 4 people in the car, there ended up being 2 passengers in the rear that got out with just bumps n scrapes. I think it'd be hard to do anything in a car with no power! LOL. He said he hit a slippery patch of road on a turn and there he went..

I'm not quite sure but I think it may be considered vehicular manslaughter..
