Default eclipse driver killed

Does anybody know about the accident in Tampa, near Waters? I think it was on Dale Mabrey.

Someone in a mitsubishi eclipse driving in "excessive speed" crashed into a, of all cars, police car that had pulled someone over. The driver of the Eclipse died.

Anyone know anything about that?

it says the guy crossed the median and hit the cops. i wonder if he was dead when the car went over the median...like he died at the wheel and swerved over. or maybe he was drunk.

im putting my money on crankwalk

Wonder how fast he was going. The faster you go the faster you are prone to loosing control and that one little rock on the road at 45mph compare to 100+mph can make a difference. If anything he was going at a high rate of speed like stated. Something was on the road and caused him to lose control. Its like going fast then hitting a section that has water on it. Lose traction, lose control.
