Reckless Driver Decapitated In Cobble Hill

Thankfully no pedestrians were injured.  Something else to consider: this interchange is dangerous even without reckless behavior.  But alas, when the state cancelled the Stakeholders Advisory Committee for the Brooklyn Heights portion of the BQE, any plan to improve this stretch of highway and its ramps was shelved.

Police Chase Ends in Decapitation

"A car chase through Brooklyn ended in a horrifying scene yesterday when the driver of a black Infiniti crashed into the back of a flatbed truck and lost his head. According to a witness, the 22-year-old driver was going about 80 miles per hour when he slammed into the back of the stopped truck at the end of the Atlantic Avenue exit on the Gowanus Expressway.

Never run from the police.  Your odds of success are slim, and the chance of vastly upgraded charges (and the chance that you will gravely harm yourself or someone else) are great.
