Cobra Crash
The local news said he crashed the car and got out ok, tried to bribe the cops and arrested...booze problem. The guys name was Wilson, I think.

I wonder if the passenger would have survived had there been a roll over bar on that side? Just a question. Anyways, they both would have survived if they hadn't got in car after drinking.

That is really a sad thing and to think he wanted them to just forget it. If that car was his life, he may not have much of a life for some time now.

A 21 year old with a wad of cash, a Cobra replica and a warrant out of Texas - There's a lot more to this story that just youthful poor judgement. I want to know where the money came from.

Stupid is as stupid does, just because you can afford a Cobra (real or replica, in this case a Premier), does not mean you can handle driving one.
Three strikes for this one:
1: Intoxicated/under the influence of something, booze or drugs, or both
2: Young and inexperienced, a mindset that "I can handle everything"
3: More money than brains, if he even owned the car in question
Bill S.
PS: I'm wondering if he set the car on fire.

Good point. Hoping maybe to get rid of the dead body? All the crashes that have been posted of Cobras on here, none of them "burst into flame". |

The news said the passenger didn't make it, bad part about only one roll bar.
Very sad to say the least.

I can't Imagine being the father of that girl, and loosing her like that, and then to add insult to injury hearing his comments after such a senseless loss , one thing is for sure something is rotten in Denmark about the scene of they accident.

Local news reported that the passenger was just getting a ride home from some watering hole. So many things wrong. Horrible judgement one her part as well, obviously, as the driver.
There, but for the grace of God, go I.
I'm a whole long way from being religious, but this old saying sure fits.

This is indeed sad news for our entire cobra family nationwide. Text book example of what not to do. Apparently, older is wiser. How many times have we heard "alcohol and cobras don't mix?" or "These things can bite you in an instant."
The lying, bribery and warrant are all Joe's fault. Probably was a nice car.
Makes me want to hug Karl.

I hope the passenger died immediately in the crash without suffering. I think I would have to die trying to get someone alive out of a burning car before letting them burn to death. Very sad.

Another idiot suffering from affluenza. I think the drunk kid in the pickup was from Texas. Same dude, different alias?

In Wilson's interview by the police he stated that he "didn't what he was going to do because that car was his life." While that poor girl was dead and burned.
Gentlemen, if you ever wondered what an a$$hole was, here it is.
