DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. (MyFOX ATLANTA) - Two people were killed in a wreck on Interstate 285 in DeKalb County Tuesday. Police said they were investigating eyewitness reports that at least two of the cars involved in the crash were racing.

The accident happened on Interstate 285, just south of Lavista Road. Investigators said a Corvette and a Mustang may have been racing when one of the cars collided with a guard rail. The two occupants of the Corvette died in the crash.

An SUV was also involved in the crash, and two of its passengers were transported to the hospital in critical condition.

Yeah. Better make it conclusive that you're referring to it sucking for the SUV occupants. Later, QD.

[Atlblkz06]

The SUV probably couldn't get out of the way fast enough because its a big old POS. Had they been in a car they would have done better. But wait no, SUVs are safer...

To the dead guy who drove the corvette: FUCK YOU, I hope you burn in hell.
Morons like you increase insurance rates for guys like me.

[BobbyFresco]

I wonder if the deceased have any ties to this forum?

I was just there on the exit at the same exact time of the crash yesterday....shit was crazy....

Wondering if they have DOT tape of the crash. It was stupid of them to do such a thing...I wish best of luck to the ones who were in the SUV.

ATLANTA - DeKalb police are investigating whether street racing is to blame for a wreck that left two people dead on Interstate 285.

Witnesses said a Corvette and a Mustang appeared to be racing south of LaVista Road when one of the cars slammed into a guardrail around 9 p.m. Tuesday.

Two people in the Corvette were killed.

Two others in an SUV were rushed to the hospital with critical injuries.

Police identified the dead as 20-year-old Brandon Phillips, the driver, and 18-year-old Jordan Makanani.

Authorities have located the driver of the Mustang who they believe witnessed the accident.

[collins]

dont worry about the repost. alot of ppl in the WL dont frequent the KF. i saw the traffic on my way home from work, obviously not knowing details. i thought to myself "yeap... something fucked up happened right there!"

and wow, after seeing the pic of the vette, its no wonder they died! there's hardly anything left! i hope the 2 ppl in the suv have a speedy recovery. its a shame they were involved in this.

Actually I have nowhere else to be. Just sitting here watching the Braves, doing laundry and getting ready for bed. Alarm goes off at 4:45 so I like to get to bed early.

Funny how you should knock a vehicle you have never seen, yet you proudly display your little rice car.

I drove by the scene yesterday. The vette was near to the guard rail as pictured. The SUV he hit was a Lexus GX470 that was still in the center lane, it held up pretty well, front driver side of the car was gone though. The windshield or fragments were in the cabin so I guess it's safe to say that the passengers wore their seat belts and didn't fly through. The mustang was gone.. probably didn't stop for the accident but tagged by the witnesses. I saw a shit load of guys standing next to the carnage though (probably friends?) I also saw a red ap1 s2000 ~100 yards in front of the wreck..

Sigh.. And I was wondering why did the police enforced the over 75 rule, and now I know why.

[Blackknightg]

ya what dude said was pretty inconsiderate even though all of us here like to drive fast i'm sure. I try not to put anyone in danger when I do. But its pretty hard to move out of the way when 2 cars going 120mph come up one u without any notice:thinking:........that's just a dumbass comment to make. And most people would rather have the person stay still than move unpredictably (if thats even a word) on the road. Most of the time a good driver is aware of the cars on the road whether he is hauling ass or not. I'm sure a guy on a bike would not want u to try and "move out of the way".....

20 years old with an LS1 vette... What did you expect.

I understand ppl don't like street racer's or racing but applauding their death, damn. Fuck if they should or shouldn't no one deserves to lose the one life they have.

20 years old with an LS1 vette... What did you expect.

I had fast cars my whole life thanx to my dad. The age means nothing. I did my stupid shit --- but not in that much traffic. In fact, I didn't do dumb shit like this until I was already an adult. I have done the EXACT same thing as this plenty of times (fuckin around in heavier traffic than I should) so I'm not gonna pretend I'm oh so righteous now like a lot of people in this thread. I could have died like this many times over.

-- dieing doesn't teach the person a lesson, they are dead. It just hurts their families. To teach some1 a lesson ... they should accidentally run a car off the road filled w/ people they love. This way they learn something... altho that isn't fair to their family either. 1 moment of dumbness/poor judgement doesn't mean some1 should pay w/ their life -- if that was the case we'd all already be dead.

[quickdodge®]

so I'm not gonna pretend I'm oh so righteous now like a lot of people in this thread.

I have reason to be "righteous" in circumstances such this. So I'm good.


1 moment of dumbness/poor judgement doesn't mean some1 should pay w/ their life -

Depending on the circumstances, yes it does. Why did those people in that SUV have to get hurt the way they did because of some idiot's "dumbness/poor judgement?" I'm good with my stance on things such as this. I don't care what anyone says about me on it. Later, QD.

[BABY J]

QD you're a commercial truck driver who has taken pictures from a moving vehicle that you're in command of on a public road. (so have I) That is poor judgement. Train conductors have derailed trains doing the same thing (i.e. texting, pictures etc). It's along the same lines - being dumb while you're driving. We all have done it. But at that time you/we are thinking "I got it, I'm in control" until something like this happens. Doesn't make it right, but it does make it where I can say I'm not gonna pretend that we all haven't pushed it or exercised poor judgement in public... this guy just payed the ultimate price.

Should the SUV people have to pay? No... I feel for them and their families.

Nothing wrong w/ standing by your convictions tho - +1.

20 years old with an LS1 vette... What did you expect.

Double post for me but I'm on my iPhone. You are a tool age doesn't apply in this situation, it's maturity and responsibility. I had a G35 at 16, a LS2 Corvette at 18, and a LS3 Corvette at 20 with no problems any where close to this.

[quickdodge®]

QD you're a commercial truck driver who has taken pictures from a moving vehicle that you're in command of on a public road. (so have I) That is poor judgement.

But I wasn't traveling at a high speeds trying to outrun someone else. In fact, each picture I have taken have either been at a standstill or at a slow moving pace. I'm not saying I made the best choice, but there is a huge difference in comparing slow-moving picture taking to racing down crowded freeways at high rates of speed. Later, QD.
