Mountain road, river on one side and steep mntn on the other.

Myself, the driver and another friend were stuffed into a 66 elcamino.
We had been to logger day in a town called horseshoe bend.
We were heading to crouch, a town about 20 miles away, now mind you it is 1:40 am and the bars close at 2 am here.

This 20 miles is twisty windy 2 lane road.
We were averaging 90 + mph when we failed to make a turn, up the embankment we went, just before we flipped we hit a road sign, the kind with a 4X4" post. Well we snapped it but it slammed down on the roof and stopped us from anout 40 mph.
I saw the sign and was sure my buddy in the middle was about to lose his head. We had to climb out the driver door.
Had we gone off on the other side of the road we would have been in the river after a 60-75' drop to white water and rocks...this stretch is nationally renound kayak water.

After a few hours and a few drinks I decided not to kill the driver....we had tried to get him to stop several times.
