That dude is lucky. I hope that he can appreciate that fact...
Hopefully Dodge pays for the hospital bill and hands him over the keys to a new SRT-4.
Personally, after I was in that kinda accident with that car... I don't think I'd want to own one.

I dunno, I flipped my Contour and bought another one the next month. I feel safe in it; especially after my wreck.

Nope. Not even a little. I don't know about your state, but in mine a vehicle is a deadly weapon. Any officer can arrest me on the spot for going 21+ over the speed limit (at his/her discretion). Its called "driving with intent to kill." Since I don't know of any road in my state where 100+ mph is less than 21 over, I can safely assume that moving at that speed would get me arrested. The state's reason for this is that if I wreck the car at that speed, chances are very good that someone will die: me, any passengers in my car, or anyone else unfortunate enough to be near me when it happens. Anyone who can claim that they didn't know this is either incredibly stupid or a liar. Therefore, wrecking a car and almost killing someone qualifies as attempted manslaughter.
Not entirely correct  . According to WI statutes 346.57(5).
Quote:
Zoned and Posted Limits.
In addition to complying with the speed restrictions imposed by subs. (2) and (3), no person shall drive a vehicle in excess of any speed limit established pursuant to law by a state or local authorities and indicated by official signs.
That is the statue typically written for speeding. The penalties for violating this section "may be required to forfeit not less than $30 nor more than $300." No possibility of arrest for any 346.57 infraction.
However, reckless driving can be an arrestable offense (Chpt. 346.62(2)), punishable by a forfeiture not less than $50 nor more than $500 or imprisoned for not more than 1 year in county jail or both.

Um. Wow.
That guy is lucky.
If it's any consolation, I'm expecting that guy to get a free '04 SRT with lifetime service, and a few hundred grand with a cherry on top.
