Inconclusive...There's a number of tire marks that lead into that run-off area. - snoogins 2007-11-08 20:10:18 (99 views)

Look at the darkest skids. Also, car could of been a bit sideways there already and hence 4 marks. - a_CQ 2007-11-09 21:06:45 (77 views)

Yeah, he coulda been crossed up. But if you look real hard at the video... - snoogins 2007-11-10 21:09:41 (106 views)

yep. We can all speculate one way or another. - a_CQ 2007-11-13 14:10:31 (64 views)
