Default Sad fate for ISF and driver

This happened a few days ago, a single car rollover accident killing the driver, said to be in the Navy. They believe he was racing or driving at a high rate of speed. Hope he was not a member here. You can see the mangled up ISF in the news video. I know this area very well and just moved out of Chula Vista a couple months ago, I never seen this ISF around. RIP to the driver.

That is very sad, May he rest in peace. Whether he was a CL forum member or not, he was one of us. A fellow F brother. My heart is with the family and hope the passengers recover in good health.

Just unfortunate. May the driver now rest in peace. Speed can kill. We all want to go fast, but do it in a controlled manner. Sadly, this wasn't the case. My condolences to the grieving family.

Couldn't put it any better.

Sad news indeed.

Rest in peace brother. Thoughts and prayers with his family and with the passengers and their families as well.

Please stay safe guys.

Damn wonder if he had his seat belt on? That's why I always keep it 55 on public streets.

In the comment section they said the guy who lost his life was named Dwayne and was in the Navy? Didn't know if that might help someone figure out if he was a CL member or not?

lexus has very high ratings for crash test but when it comes to landing on the roof i am pretty sure all cars failed to protect the driver or anyone where the car lands, needless to say be safe out there guys. alcohol and speed is always a bad combination.

RIP
