The culinary school should do a scholarship in memory of Samuel. He was cooking when he died.

Wow,  That video of the actual crash was wild: 100+ miles an hour, got very airborne, rotating and smashed into the building - I’m surprised anyone survived.

I used to volunteer with Pasadena Fire.  Something like 1100 hours over 6 years.

Never had any calls like that.  Don't know if that's good or bad.

The book of faces video link indicates that the driver was "arrested" for DUI last September, did not say convicted.  I wonder if the driver's family was actively fighting the DUI case for him, because maybe someone's little snowflake just couldn't have been actually driving while drunk, so that unfair case had to be fought.

I don't know what california's laws are on drunk driving, can you still legally drive after being arrested for DUI, or do you get your license handed back to you while the case is being fought in court?  How about the insurance - would the policy still be in force while the DUI case is being investigated or would the carrier just cancel the policy?

The cynic in me thinks that somehow the carmaker (deep pockets) is going to be sued big in court due to the car being inherently too dangerous due to lack of automatic speed limiting or something.

The final resolution on this case will be years away, this is clearly not the fault of the driver. [sarcasm]

What does Tesla have to do with it?

Like they would have survived in an ICE vehicle?

The 20 year old was an Eagle Scout.

ETA I see that was already noted.

My kids go to that high school.  They had a memorial service at the school on Monday.  There were girls in the car that were as young as 17 yrs. old.  My daughter says she would see one of the girls during lab one classroom over.  The driver was intoxicated and driving over 75 mph when he ran a red.  That part of Footill Blvd. happens to curve, so he hit a curb and went airborne.  As it was the driver's second documented DUI, I would consider his passengers victims (even of their own immaturity).  This happened just before Mother's Day, and graduation is just around the corner.  My heart really goes out to all the affected families.

He must have launched off of this pile of rocks near the curb to get that much air.

Wow I think that's exactly where the Tesla hit.  Good find.
