i don't think i've seen a car torn up that bad.
not to sound cold but i doubt it was anyone in our group. none of us really seems like the type to be ripping up 95 at 100+ mph at 1:30am
doing it by yourself is one thing, but with 3 others? just irresponsible.
i have a buddy who is a lot younger than me, when he was like 18 he was drooling over this dude's evo so the owner was like get in. the guy was drunk but continued to do like 140 up 202N from west chester with my buddy and his friend in the car.

well all 4 in the car died, and 1 was ejected and decapitated. i immediatly texted bsander to make sure he was ok. i was stuck in traffic for an hour this morning because of this, the back of the mack truck was ****ed up
No other info for us Adam? Was it a PA or NJ car?
As for the comment assuming he was ripping up and down the highway at 100, let's not jump to conclusions. Hitting a trailer at 65 and spinning out of control will net the same carnage.

Lets be realistic here, we've all seen the pictures, and i doubt a 65mph crash will end looking like that. i mean, its possible, but not probable. and none of us will ever know what really happened, so all there is left to do is wonder and quietly mourn a fallen evo driver.
true story, who here tho at 130 am doesnt rip down 95 at 100+ i think he made the lane change at high speed and because of the uneven ground from construction he lost it, or just got too nervous and overcorrected, thus throwing him into a spin...and the rest is history
yea had a rock hit my windshield but didnt make a mark, thank god, but yea, all in all, 95 SUCKS right now. The levels of the road are off like crazy, switching lanes with the roads like that is risky.

Pennsylvania State Police are still investigating the cause of fatal crash that killed four people on I-95 between Allegheny and Girard early Sunday morning.
Troopers said the driver of a 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer was speeding on the interstate and making several lane changes. At one point, when the driver was in the left lane, he made a sudden turn to the right and lost control. The Lancer spun clockwise and slid ten feet under a freightliner tractor trailer, which had been traveling in the southbound lane on I-95.
After the car spun away from the truck, it overturned and one of the passengers was ejected. The Lancer finally came to a stop at the top of the Girard southbound off-ramp.
All four people in the Lancer were pronounced dead at the scene by the Philadelphia Fire Department. Names are being withheld until notification of next of kin, police said. Three of the four passengers were wearing their seat belts, according to officials at the scene.
The driver of the tractor trailer, Frank Maier Jr. of Abingdon, Md., was not injured.
Southbound I-95 was closed until 7:00 a.m. while police investigated the accident. Witnesses are asked to call State Police with any information at (215) 560-6199.
