This is terrible, the idiot managed to not only total a classic '66 cobra but also kill himself and the chick he was hanging with...

This makes you appreciate the safety devices on our modern muscle cars :(

Two ejected, killed as antique car hits pole

Two people were killed Saturday night when their antique roadster struck a pole, ejecting them both from the convertible.

The pair died in the 4200 block of Polk Street just after 8 p.m., according to Hollywood police spokesman Capt. Tony Rode.

The two were not immediately identified, but Rode said the driver was a middle-age Broward County man. The female passenger was not yet identified late Saturday night.

Witnesses told police they saw the 1966 Ford Cobra driving west at a high rate of speed. The car hit the center median and went airborne briefly before the $200,000 sports car hit a concrete utility pole. The pair were thrown and pronounced dead at the scene.

Rode said no other cars were involved.

Very unfortunate... I absolutely love having ABS, Traction Control and Active Handling. It saved me from hitting a concrete wall last summer in Vegas.
