Apparently... he was driving on the service(feeder) road for the freeway(immediately to the left of the accident scene). And he began driving off on the right shoulder for a decent distance, then struck the curb almost dead on which then put the car into a somersault action which finally came to stop on the roof, after taking out a good deal of the rest of the roof during the tumbling action.

Maybe he was speeding on the freeway got off and wasn't paying attention, maybe he was on the freeway and dozed off, maybe a blown tire pulled him to the right, maybe his brakes went out as he exited the freeway, maybe... Whatever the reason, a young person died, intentionally, due to stupidity or a legit accident. Point is, its not fair to family and friends and is still a tragedy. Nobody here knows what type of person he was, how he drove everyday, or his emotional/mental status at that time. Most likely, we'll never know exactly what happened.

Lets just all take this as a lesson, and think twice before we take that extra risk. Maybe that little pause will end up saving you or someone else in the future.

RIP Shaun

Thats all i have to say on this topic.
