I was coming home from school about 3 hours agos and there was a guy driving really crazy, passing people on the shoulder going 95 mph, etc. Anyway right as i got of on my exit the guy that was in front of me got cutoff by the crazy driver and took flight off the side of the highway going about 80-85mph. He landed after about a 50 foot drop and then started to roll. He rolled roughly six times
taking out 3 trees with him, he finally stoped after hitting a fence. I rolled up first on the scene, me another a another guy ripped the door open to let the guy out. He had a little bleeding coming from his head but he seemed fine and he said he was
ok just a little shaken up. Real help arrives a few minutes later and took over.
It scared the hell out of me b/c if i would of not have gotten off I could of be involved in the accident. I sad thing is the guy that caused it didn't even stop and I don't think the police will catch him sence it was just a plain stock car that nobody saw the plates.

Pics from my cell phone:

He took flight just after the bushs up next to the highway and landed just before the feeder road:

He stoped up against a fence roughly 200 yards from where he came off the highway:

O yeah the guy told me his truck was only 2 months old and only had 4000 miles on it. He is very lucky he didn't get seriously injured. I thought for sure i was going to get to see a life flight helicopter when i saw him come off the highway.

Glad to see you're ok and that you could help a fellow human being out by being there to help.

was he in shock... id think he would have broken something, maybe he couldnt tell.

and if you know the color, type and year of the car and maybe the first or last digit of his plate the cops probibly could get him

We should have a such thing as a stupid gun in our cars. You electronicly flag thoses who are speeding with this stupid gun. It will shine "this dude in this (insert color of car, what make, and year) sux at life and driving" after every traffic sign he passes for the next mile.

Forgot to ask this, but did the cops get his BAL (Blood/Alcohol Level)? Thats pretty much the most common cause of stuff like this.

The crazy driver guy didn't crash, he forced that F-150 off the road. the crazy guy got away.

I told the cops the make, model, color and rougly a year of the car. I also gave a brief desription of the driver i saw sence he had his windows down.
