I saw this on CNN today. I thought to myself, "why didn't he just put it in neutral?" Then they interviewed him...one question....how did he even get a license to drive?

Did you hear the 911 tapes? The idiot couldn't even answer the questions the operator was asking. Neutral? No? Dumb ass, neutral doesn't make your car uncontrollable, it makes it not go forward. You still have brakes and steering. She kept telling him to put it in neutral.
I think he realized after it was all done that he was going to look stupid so he made up the "control" excuse for why he didn't put it in neutral when he was told to.

I know of a guy with a Prius. He's a genius when it comes to reading and thinking things through, but let it be something mechanical and this guy has not got a clue! No common sense, whatsoever. To help get a fire going, pour gas right from the can onto the fire and wonder why the can is about to explode in his hands. Most of us learned about gasoline before we were about eight!

OJ.....THIS GUY KNEW EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS DOING AND IT INVOLVED 'GETTING' SOME COMPENSATION FROM A LAWSUIT.........
-
Exactly, then when everyone knew his history and that he is financially strapped, he backed out of it. I guess he didn't want to look like the balloon boy's parents! Not worth going to jail over!

musicman, I came around to that opinion rather quickly, especially after hearing the call. That was so ridiculous I could hardly believe it.
-
welcome back 3b,
OJ, Musicmanhah, I also came to that conclusion. I have a feeling he had one foot on the gas and one on the brake to make it seem like he couldn't stop. Everyone I know thinks he was doing it for the money, but once the 911 call came out and showed how stupid he was, he had to drop it or face a lifetime of rolling eyes.

How one cannot remember that if a car can go it can also stop is beyond me. Yeah, this sounds bogus to me.

George Carlin told us all that if you think the average person is stupid, just remember that half of the rest of them are worse than that -- and I'm beginning to believe that most of the worse ones can be found, at one time or another, at a Toyota dealer...........One thing that vexes me, though, is: how can people that stupid make enough money to qualify for a loan? I'm a near-genius, and I don't make enough to live more than paycheck-to-paycheck!
