Saw this on my local news website...can't believe he lived.

Cruiser cams were the best idea ever.

Normally when you are speeding and you see a cop in front of you, you slam on the brakes. Not drive off the road and try to jump on a bridge to get away!

The Third Gen guys have it pegged as a 85 Firebird.

It's most certainly anywhere from 1985-1989, but it would be impossible to tell from pictures because you could mix and match anything. If I could see the rear spoiler or a better picture of the taillights, I could say for sure.


I wonder if it was a suicide attempt. Apparently not an hour before, he was arrested: alcohol possession, drug paraphernalia, trace of marijuana and he was with a 15-year old girl.

If the angle of that guardrail were about 7 degrees higher, he would have jumped the bridge.

They could have zoomed out a bit more and have her in a tank top.
