    They said after he hit the Toyota, he pushed it 500 feet. Hopefully the impact broke the woman's neck and she died on impact and she didn't suffer burning alive.

      No sir, a security guard from the nearby apartment building tried to help her out on scene but the flames overtook everything and she was screaming and burned alive. Awful.

        from living the American dream, fit, young, on a winning team, in Las Vegas, millions in the bank account and millions to come. To a nightmare in one day. Sad.

          Have yet to see this reported, but hear former Raiders player Henry Ruggs had been at Top Golf prior to the crash. Rumor from staffer is Ruggs had 18 shots and other mixed drinks. Investigators visited to review venue surveillance tapes.

              Yes you are correct. Anybody who serves alcohol/permit has duty to not over serve their customers.

                The bar should get a nice lawsuit to go along with his.

                  Was this maybe a suicide attempt? Blinded drunk, 156 mph and loaded gun?

                      That's completely irrelevant to his actions that resulted in death.

                        Hmm. I would expect his BAC to be much higher than just double.

                            How could she not get out of the car? That seems so weird? You would think the Corvette would absorb most of the impact, especially if it went underneath her car. You would think it would take some time for a fire from the gas tank to enter inside the car? Most interior materials are fire retardant.

                                        You ever had shots at Top Golf? Haha, I'm surprised he blew drunk. Hell, he might have went to the liquor store first. LOL

                                        I was just at a TG in Houston Sunday and they mark up everything. You sit at the bar, they run up your tab, you buy food, then go to your cubby, they add more drinks, food, bay fees and you're looking at 5 bills for a couple of hours. The bay fees used to be separate, so it wasn't added to the tip but now they put everything on your final bill, so you're paying a tip just to hit balls too. Sneaky foul.

                                        I use to play basketball with the guy who designed TG and does all the construction sites. Great concept.

                                          Money had nothing to do with him being a dumb ass. That is all on him. Broke people make bad choices too.

                                            No words bro. He needs to just strike a deal now, get going on his time and maybe hope to get our before he is 30. I can’t begin to describe how much of a residential area this is and how HARD it would be to get up to 156mph with the lights in between. Crazy.

                                                That Corvette is very light compared to the Toyota SUV. Simple math F=MA would suggest the Corvette would have absorbed most of the impact, especially being so low. 500 feet is relative. Was she at a stop, then yes that pretty far but if she was going 50 mph, that is pretty reasonable. Did she die on impact? Seems unlikely. Plenty of unanswered questions that will come out in the investigation. How did the car catch on fire so quickly? There could be a manufacturing defect? Not trying to absolve Ruggs by any means. That guy is fukked.

Simple math F=MA would suggest the Corvette would have absorbed most of the impact, especially being so low. 500 feet is relative. Was she at a stop, then yes that pretty far but if she was going 50 mph, that is pretty reasonable. Did she die on impact? Seems unlikely. Plenty of unanswered questions that will come out in the investigation. How did the car catch on fire so quickly? There could be a manufacturing defect? Not trying to absolve Ruggs by any means. That guy is fukked.
                                                  Car crashes are a very interesting way to teach physics. They deal with force yes but there is also kinetic energy and how it is disapted or absorbed along with inelastic and elastic energy also deals with vectors and even gravity. Great way to learn Newton's laws. Although in this case very tragic.

                                                    One of my first cars was a 72 Crown Vic wagon with the wood paneling. That was one ugly car that guzzled gas but it could hit a Mack truck and not move. One night I was driving in snow, with balled wheels and the car went straight into a guard rail. The guard rail was bent to shit and there wasn't a scratch on the car. That front fender was like a battering ram out of Mad Max.

                                                      Crown Vics were always full frame cars even until the last year in 2011 great cars!

                                                        They don’t make them like that any longer! All these cars are flimsy crap.

                                                                        I was just at a TG in Houston Sunday and they mark up everything. You sit at the bar, they run up your tab, you buy food, then go to your cubby, they add more drinks, food, bay fees and you're looking at 5 bills for a couple of hours. The bay fees used to be separate, so it wasn't added to the tip but now they put everything on your final bill, so you're paying a tip just to hit balls too. Sneaky foul.

                                                                        I use to play basketball with the guy who designed TG and does all the construction sites. Great concept.
