Default IS crash video from last night

Local L.A. news has been running this all day. Looks like both cars were DUI. Pretty nasty (and ghetto).

Some points-
-A lot can be said about the driver who had the freeway all to himself and still didn't see the disabled Lexus.
-IS got nailed on the wheel, which is a strong point.
-I don't think the IS driver was still in the car when it got t-boned.

It was just bad from start to finish. I wonder what was so bad with the first crash that made her abandon the car in the middle of the lanes. It appeared both rear wheels were intact before the second impact.
Also, no hazard lights on doesn't help either.

Lucky photog to be able to catch that. I hope everyone was okay, although I have little sympathy for drunk drivers.

My first feeling was anger. That someone innocent could have got caught up in their mistake. We all drive the same roads with these drunks.
