Please place a warning so others don’t have to be subjected to the distressing picture. Some of us actually have to drive places, and I don’t want to see what could happen to my car if I’m not a safe driver! Also, think of the poor family. There’s probably a dead person in there. Just wow
Life is full of “distressing pictures” and situations. You can try and change it, deal with it, or accept it as best you can. If you expect others to warn you or mask the situation………you’re going to be very disappointed.
Drive careful folks. It’s bare and dry, clear, no wind, and there is no excuse for this kind of mess. (Texting?)
I understand he “Lost control of the steering wheel”. yeah, sure.
