^^ya man, it's in black and white because I was in a photography class at the time and I had my camera on the passenger seat (b&w film). It was a split second decision, turned out pretty good tho, I screwed up in the developing room...if you blow up the picture you can see a blur line along the top third of the picture, but it's still a cool pic.

the passengers in that car didn't die fortunetly. He actually recovered fully, but hsi passenger has problems. But that incident caused hundreds of motorists to be stuck in non-stop traffic for countless hours.
