    Man, if I hadn't heard the story behind this, I would've assumed a rioting mob had been through.

    I know Detroit has its unpleasant areas, but the people who drove across the obviously engulfed in a large quantity of flammable stuff, should have their licenses revoked and their reproductive systems disabled, permanently.

    Morons.

    @can't find no job, that's why I ain't go no...: Nothing, and I mean nothing, stops Detroit drivers. I have seen the most insane driving ever on the highways surrounding Detroit.

    I've seen passes at 90+ in SUV's on the shoulder just to be "first" to a construction bottleneck. I've seen battered cars on the side of the highway that were obviously hit repeatedly until the car was out of the lanes.

    I've seen emergency vehicles with lights blazing tailgated at less than a foot by people trying to get an advantage in the traffic.

    You're right, they're morons.

    @engineerd misses Uncle Pete: I currently live in Santa Maria Ca. with a 2nd story bedroom view of everything leaving Vandenberg. The day they nixed the west coast Shuttle program was a sad one indeed 'cause I might not get to see a Shuttle launch before they're gone forever.
    That said, I'm seriously exited about the Ares launch! I may yet get to see a moon mission!

    Unbelievable. Not the fire. The cars that continue to travel over the bridge.

    Looking forward to interviews with the idiots who drove over the exploding roadway.

    Common sense is only common for those who possess it.

    I don't believe the information gathered from such interviews would be of benefit to anyone (save maybe Jeff Foxworthy).

    Too bad there wasn't sound to go with the video. I always make sure to scream "YEEEEEHAAAAAAWWWW!" whenever I drive through thick smoke and flames.
