What happens when you combine stupid people with cars? Here’s a local genius who may have spent too much time watching Hollywood movies and lost track of reality just a wee touch. Courtesy of my favourite fish-wrapper, the Herald Sun:
Man in hospital with head injuries after jumping from car at 90km/h
A 21-YEAR-OLD man who jumped out of a moving car while he was driving it at nearly 90km/h is in hospital with serious head injuries.
Police Constable Nikki Drever said the man was driving on the Surf Coast Hwy in the right-hand lane when he opened his door and jumped out of the vehicle about 1.25 am Saturday, the Geelong Advertiser reports.
“Apparently he said, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if I jumped out of the car while it was going’ and then the next thing he jumped,” she said.
Definite Darwin awards material, and we all have to share the roads with them.
