We sure that was a cop and not just some dude with a dashcam? I thought those cop cams were only programmed to come on when their siren/lights are on.

Also, am I a bad person cuz the first thing I noticed in that video is the left lane is doing the same speed (maybe even slightly slower) as the right lane? That crap pisses me off. It's called a passing lane for a reason. (It's no excuse for that idiot eating concrete though.)

Police cams always run , that way a bad police officer can't turn it on/off as they see fit while on duty. But if that was a Police cam it would show more data on the screen time/date and speed.

I have a few Sugarcreek PD friends, I haven't found out who captured that but they always complain about not having anything exciting. I think they finally got some excitement.

SUGARCREEK TOWNSHIP (WDTN) - A single car crash on Interstate 675 shut down the southbound lanes in Sugarcreek Twp. for six hours Aug. 23.

Brennan S. Eden, 19, of Mason, Ohio, lost control of his car and slammed into the concrete pillar of a bridge south of Indian Ripple Road about 7:15 a.m.

The force of the crash broke the car into three pieces and Brennan was ejected.

Witnesses said moments before the crash, Brennan was passing other drivers at speeds of at least 100 mph. He crashed when he drove off the left side of the roadway while passing a Sugarcreek Twp. police car. The crash was caught on that officer's cruiser camera.

"He went down into the median, into the grass, hit the guardrail, went airborne and the car hit the center post of the bridge and literally exploded into three main pieces," said witness Mark Riley.

Police said Brennan was alert and conscious after the crash and was flown to Miami Valley Hospital by Careflight where he was last listed in critical condition.

"He is very lucky to still be alive at this point," said Ohio State Highway Patrol Lt. Marty Fellure. "You can see behind me the impact he took and where he got ejected and landed, he's a very fortunate man right now."

Fellure said they are still investigating the crash trying to determine the driver's speed and why he was passing cars on the berm.

more info:

The guy was 19 years old, from mason and was arrested right before this for having an unopened container of alcohol, a small amount of weed, paraphinalia, and an underage female in the car. He cooperated with officers.

Not sure what else happened, but maybe he found out he got her pregnant :D

Re: this is why you dont speed around like a idiot

thats crazy he didnt even looked like he tried to avoid it. my first thought was someone fell asleep at the wheel or had some kind of medical disorder like a sizer becuase we had something similar to that locally about 3 years ago though that person didnt get airborne.

The vehicle was a 1985 Pontiac Firebird according to local news stations.

K wait... he had an unopened bottle of alchol, I dont see an issue with that?? It's unopened??...underage female? not sure what that means? Since when is it illegal to have a girl that is not of age in your car?

The weed and parafinillia I can see being an issue...

We've all sped at some point...this guy just lost control...I dunno....
