Oh boy, what could go wrong with that? I bet theres a fair number of cars that go airborne when they loose control….When the movie was released in Salem, Oregon some teenagers had the same response. After watching the movie, a Mustang was chasing a Charger full of boys. It was all good fun until the Charger lost control and hit the end of a guardrail, which went up over the hood, through the windshield and exited through the back window. In doing so, it whipped around in the passenger compartment, killing all inside. Most by decapitation.
This accident resulted in a State mandate that all guardrails be changed to bring the ends down to ground level.
The issue wasn’t the guardrail, it was the vehicle operators. Lost a fair number of friends to stupidity in cars when I was young. After the 4th or 5th funeral, I learned my lesson and stopped driving like main street was indy…
