Exclamation Saw a LS1 TA Spin Out Loose Control on I-95 Tonight after OSW,Anyone Know Who??

I saw the most disturbing thing tonight on the way home from the midnight drags tonight on my way home.. I saw a LS1 Trans Am , I think it was black, not positive though for sure.. Copletely loose control of the car On I-95 South..and spun into the median and caught good amount of air, jumped to the North bound lanes, and I think into the emergency lanes... There was no way I could get over that median, it was deep as hell, but I saw the car continue northbound, I have no idea where it went from there...

Is the owner reading this, or does anyone know the owner of this car? If so Please tell me, I would like to know if they are okay and what damages happened to the car, since from what I saw, It looked like the entire front suspension and front clip would be beat up very good.. I hope for the best.. I'm defintely going to loose sleep over this one, please help me out guys..

This was in Brevard county, I think somewhere around 520..? I wasn't paying much attention.. All I know is it got me spooked, I'm not driving either of my f-bodys for a while..

Yes the TA is my dads car, we have had it for a while, but I don't drive it that much, sometimes when my car is down or I just don't want to wake up my neighboors to go out at night or something..lol

I didn't run the car, since there was no time slips.. I didn't think it was worth it anyways there were only a select handfull of cars there that would have been worth a dam, 99% that showed up were the ricers..

better the ricers are going to the strip, maybe they won't be such idiots on the street now.
they need to do things like the "midnite racing" in other places.

We all gotta be careful now. I have seen a ton of Fbody cars in ditches and spun out lately. I saw a blue Camaro smashed pretty bad about a couple weeks ago on I4 just past the Colonial exit. Almost looks like it might have flipped.

Be Careful out there guys.

Just trying to picture that... Isn't that a concrete barrier wall? Ouch! Where is there a median to cross? I guess it doesn't matter much though.

yeah, something really sad happened up in Vero. I saw a blue Z upsidedown in a canal...
Atleast they just drained the canal so i was pretty empty and will probably be able to salvage the car... i really wish the city would put up guard rails.... VERO SUX!
