I don't know how old this is or if anybody has seen it, but I thought I'd post it here because it's... weird... and apparently real (parental units confirm since this happened in Alpharetta) LINK |

Well, I can tell you this much. Yes, that is I285 where the guy ended up. I've never really taken GA400 to eastbound I285 but there was probably a reason the guy decided to get on I285. Just past here, GA400 becomes a toll road and you have to pay 50 cents. The cops could have very easily caught up to the guy at the booths. Not saying he would have stopped to pay the toll but the booths usually have at least one car in each lane.
For the comment that the guy's legs looked too stiff. Unfortunately, I can tell you from experience that flipping your car over multiple times is a very surreal experience. He obviously wasn't buckled in so he would have been violently thrown around the SUV. He was probably unconscious when he was ejected. The path of his SUV looked like the one my car took and I ended up with a broken neck and very lucky to be alive. I'd say the guy was dead before he hit I285.

Ever use the one if there's a fat person crossing? "Nah, it would splatter too much". Sick, sick, sick.
Actually, I would have loved to be the insurance claims rep who processed the call from the dude on I285 -
"You say that you were driving along I285 westbound at the posted speed of 55 MPH in the daytime, with almost no traffic and a man came from the air and landed directly in front of you, causing you to hit that person and total your car. Police were called to the scene. Tell me sir, was a blood alcohol test administered?"
