After further investigation into this accident by the Colorado State Police, the cause of this accident has been concluded that the driver swerved to avoid contact with Manti Teo's girlfriend who was crossing the highway..

Also doesn't help when you're trying to control a 3 ton machine moving at 80mph in a manner it isn't intended for.

I tow my boat and a trailer all the time with mine. My tire size is 305/40/22. You would think that 40 sized profile would be kinda thin but it's actually a SUV tire. That plus Mexicans like the way it looks.

Since you are an Aggie let me explain something to you. You see that "cruise control" button? It's not an "automatic pilot" button.

Being "blessed" has nothing to do with it. The engineers and workers that designed and made the vehicle and guard rail are why you're alive.
