Could one dream this up?

There are somethings so wierd in the world, no story writer can imagine it. This story is a case in point.

It would really be something, if it turns out that this guy got caught on purpose. I don't know for sure, but it does sound suspicious that you drive at 162 mph (260 kmph) into a pole, break it into two, and all you come up with is a cut upper lip? I am willing to bet, he is in bigger trouble than the cops. Jail maybe the safest place he can be at right now. A cursory glance on Wikipedia also adds to the intrigue. [We bow to thee, O Great Wikipedia]

Side Notes:

- How sad is it that this crash happened 7 days after I leave Los Angeles for good? Would have heard about this long ago.

- Can you imagine the rubbernecking that must have gone on for this accident?


- How ridiculous is it that the San Gabriel Valley Transit Authority has an "anti-terrorism" unit?

- How ridiculous is it that the actual anti-terrorism offices of the United States let someone like this in?

Yeah. I've been following this story for months on LAtimes.com. It just keeps getting weirder and weirder. The guy may be in trouble with England for embezzling exotic cars as well. It started out as a alleged hit and run with an exotic car and its spiraled into something huge. And I think the accident happened VERY early in the morning (4am-ish?), so not too many people were around.
