I agree, it’s really bizarre. I suppose there could have been a medical emergency that could have caused an acceleration, or an issue with the vehicle or something. But the angle at which the crash occurred is strange and it must have been at a pretty high rate of speed.

I'm kind of flabbergasted you think it's bizarre. People drive recklessly and stupidly *every day* in the DMV. Areas like Courthouse are dense with pedestrians and retail, yet municipalities refuse time and time again to make them more safe. This kind of accident is 100% predictable, not bizarre. People crash into houses, light poles, other cars, bikes, children, every single day.

I’m not trying to be rude but are you familiar with this intersection? courtHouse Road starts as an offramp at route 50 with a stoplight, one block then a stoplight at the courthouse/bayou bakery. One more block then a stoplight at the intersection where he was coming from at Wilson. One of those lights is generally always red. In my 20 years of living here I’ve been able to go straight off 50 to where the pub is without getting g caught at one of those lights. How someone could get up enough speed to cause it’s kind of accident is certainly bizarre and flabbergasting! I’m wondering if he hit the gas instead of the brake.

This area is one of the highest traffic fatality areas in Arlington. Have a look for yourself.

He was likely racing the light to turn left onto Wilson and lost control. Happens ALL THE TIME. And a car only has to be going 25-30 MPH to do some real damage.

I don't think you know how to read a map. Check your sources again.

Here's Arlington's Vision Zero dashboard. Looks like there's been a fatal accident at that exact intersection before, and multiple severe injuries on the surrouding blocks. https://www.arlingtonva.us/Government/Programs/Transportation/Vision-Zero/Maps-and-Safety-Data

Again, you have some sort of rare map impairment. It shows a fatality at the intersection of Clarendon Blvd and N Courthouse Rd. This accident was one block over, at Wilson Blvd and N Courthouse Road.

That is not the "exact" intersection.

I'm truly not understanding what point you're trying to make. Are you trying to argue that this was some kind of murderous Anne Heche copycat? Given the previous fatality in this area it seems likely there are road design issues that could be improved for safety.

Yes, faking a medical event will work out a-ok. Never mind that there was a witness in the car.

And most uber drivers have cameras on their dash - supposedly to record riders but this will basically share what the driver did or did not do to cause the crash

And no one died. What do we need to do? Add another traffic light to the traffic light?

No one needs to die to file charges. The police were about to charge Ann Heche with felony DUI for the exact same thing - running into a building. She didn’t even injure anyone let alone more than a dozen people.

This can be proven/disproven via EEG.

Maybe they need the witnesses because he is not able to speak English?

unless he speaks Navajo I’m sure they can find a translator

It can be difficult to find a translator for Mongolian. That comes up more often in Arlington than you would think.

Cops have an online translation service idiot.

By online I mean the can call them 24x7

And it can take them a few hours to find a Mongolian translator. It's best to schedule in advance with the language line for obscure languages. While you can call them 24x7, it can take time to find a qualified translator.

Lady what are you talking about? This happened over 3 days ago.

Why hasn’t the passenger spoken out? Are they still hospitalized?

Because car crashes are non-events to media and police in almost all cases. Why would the passenger speak out? Who would they speak to?

Internalize this: the outcome is going to be that the driver made a mistake and it was an “accident.” there will be no repercussions- maybe a speeding ticket.

Not when they burn down a local institution! Maybe you're not in Arlington but we're all still buzzing about this. It wasn't a random traffic accident.

I’m sorry to say that you’re going to be sorely disappointed. Nobody even died. The chances of serious charges or safety updates coming out of this are extremely low. If you really want change, check around to find the local community group working on Vision Zero.

4 people were critically injured. 17 sent to the hospital. Interesting how this and an entire establishment destroyed is brushed off but let the local incels hear a whisper about blm setting fire to a trash can.

The same thing happened in DC this past Spring. Except 2 women died. After the initial media reports everything disappeared and there has been no public update on the driver.

Why exactly do you need info on the driver?

Because crimes and public safety is public information. But you knew that.

But what specifically will you do with that info? Why exactly are you obsessing over it?

Are you new here? I’m not obsessing. I posted twice. You know you’re talking to multiple people, right?

Obsessed enough to fixate on an accident from back in the spring and possible lack of news on it.

DP. Maybe because out of the three massive vehicular accidents which crashed into buildings or crowds of people within the same 72 hour period - only one has had its driver shrouded in mystery.

We know who Ann is because they couldn’t hide a Hollywood actress driving into a house. The Latino guy was all over Fox News as soon as they figured out he was brown. But this one? Crickets.

So I guess that makes you obsessed as well, given you’re so fixated on my posts.

Who cares about the driver? It doesn’t affect you.

A car crashed into an Arlington bar on one of the nicest weather weekends all summer. Many of us are thinking OMFG i could have been there. It’s a normal reaction to want to understand what caused this to happen.
