"Car crash closes I-675 SB for 6 hours The force of the crash broke the car into 3 pieces Updated: Monday, 23 Aug 2010, 5:33 PM EDT Published : Monday, 23 Aug 2010, 8:47 AM EDT * Megan O'Rourke; Web produced by David Robinson SUGARCREEK TOWNSHIP (WDTN) - A single car crash on Interstate 675 shut down the southbound lanes in Sugarcreek Twp. for six hours Aug. 23. Brennan S. Eden, 19, of Mason, Ohio, lost control of his car and slammed into the concrete pillar of a bridge south of Indian Ripple Road about 7:15 a.m. The force of the crash broke the car into three pieces and Brennan was ejected. Witnesses said moments before the crash, Brennan was passing other drivers at speeds of at least 100 mph. He crashed when he drove off the left side of the roadway while passing a Sugarcreek Twp. police car. The crash was caught on that officer's cruiser camera. "He went down into the median, into the grass, hit the guardrail, went airborne and the car hit the center post of the bridge and literally exploded into three main pieces," said witness Mark Riley. Police said Brennan was alert and conscious after the crash and was flown to Miami Valley Hospital by Careflight where he was last listed in critical condition. "He is very lucky to still be alive at this point," said Ohio State Highway Patrol Lt. Marty Fellure. "You can see behind me the impact he took and where he got ejected and landed, he's a very fortunate man right now." Fellure said they are still investigating the crash trying to determine the driver's speed and why he was passing cars on the berm." http://www.wdtn.com/dpp/on_your_side...interstate-675 |

Well, he wanted to hit the pillar as slow as possible so yeah, it makes sense to hit the brakes.
