Came upon this just south of Cross Iron today. Buddy must have been flying to take the guard rail out like that, especially in his little RSX. Claimed the sun was in his eyes and never saw the turn until it was too late.
All the stanchions that the guard rail attached to were either sheared off at road level, or split in two when the bolts pulled out. ALL of them, with the exception of 4 or 5 at the far end of it.
Either way, if that guard rail wasn't there, he probably would have cleared the QE2 and landed in the far ditch. Was kinda funny, he was wearing a calgary hot rod jacket, and walked away without a scratch.
