The guy is as smart as a rock , The car should have been lifted out of the water using a crane and divers to rig it out, Not drag it across all those rocks , it probally is totaled after that.

Just because you have the $$ to buy it doesn't mean you have the ability to drive it.

I don't know much about "grabbing a hook" and pulling onto a roll back BUT, wouldn't it have been better to take it out of gear .....and then pull (I noticed the rear wheels never turned when it was pulled through the mud and up on the flat bed).

Is this normal??

Just wondering....does anyone know why it went off the road? Didn't appear like the driver lost control. Not did it look like a tire failure. It almost looked controlled. Maybe some Sugardaddy getting even with his cheating girl friend/mistress.

The article linked to above said he was distracted by a low-flying bird and ran off the road when he went to pick up his cell phone...
