usually its because they are too drunk or old to drive. my guess in this case is by being a piece of shit. I could be wrong, but I could also be right.

Yeah, 430 pm is not exactly prime. Poor folks, nothing they could do.

18-year-old disgraced videogamer/YouTuber.
Probably mentally unstable, given the sequence of dangerous actions before the freeway .

A year or two ago, Chicago had a rash of these incidents - but they were all drunks in the middle of the night.
Back many years ago (~1990) , a buddy and I were driving up I-57 from Champaign to Chicago late at night. Just south of Kankakee, we were in the left lane passing someone around a gentle right hand curve. Suddenly realized there was an oncoming car that wasn’t in the right place to be southbound. We quickly moved over and the car blew by us at 65 mph. Scared the shit out of both of us.
Terrible tragedy - my heart goes out to the families.

From another article:
The man described on Twitter as the driver involved in the crash regularly posted YouTube videos under the pseudonym McSkillet. He posted one of the black McLaren 650S he had bought some months earlier. Without appearing on camera himself, he shows close-ups of the car interior, back end and full view with open wing-like doors.
He describes the car as “pretty damn insane” and said he could afford it because he had “made a ton” of money on his skin.game website product sales. He said the site had nearly 900,000 subscribers.

I actually did nearly go down the wrong way on the interstate once.
I was trying to access a small road next to the off ramp on the interstate. Both roads looked nearly identical, and the off-ramp didn’t have “Do not enter” signs until like way further down the ramp.
I managed to catch myself before something happened though.

CS:GO skins. Is there anything good about them, or the people involved in making money off them?

Guy must have been drunk or high. Or possibly just suicidal.

Happened to me in college, on the shuttle bus out of Philadelphia. Going up 309 and the bus took an extremely sharp turn to the left at speed, felt almost like it would tip, and a blue late ‘80s/early 90s FWD Cadillac (Fleetwood or Deville) went past on the right, going southbound on the northbound side. Pretty quick reaction from the bus driver, and also very lucky that the left lane was empty.

Thanks, it was almost 30 years ago. I guess my point was that it happens, and for those that are *not* pointed the wrong way, it’s nearly impossible to react in time to avoid a disaster - with a closing speed of 110-140 mph (or apparently quite a bit more in the San Diego case).
The reality was, we changed lanes back to the right because we passed a car - NOT because we saw the oncoming idiot. I told the story incorrectly up above - it was sheer coincidence that we changed lanes out of trouble shortly before the car blew by us.

So tragic. I can’t get this off my mind today.

Well, here’s one way:
I read recently of a case where an older driver not far from me
headed out and found himself, presumably unintentionally
, on a tolled section of a motorway. H
e continued on until he found himself at a toll booth, as one does. This seemingly took him by surprise and he decided he wasn’t paying any toll and did a u turn and headed back the way h
e h
ad come - on the wrong side of course. The toll operator and several drivers
frantically
phoned the emergency services but he got quite some distance before his luck ran out and he was killed in the inevitable collision, which the other driver miraculously survived.

No google, I’m not answering a survey just to read a news article. Infuriating.

I whitnessed someone coming at me the wrong way on the interstate several years ago. Fortunately they were in the fast lane, and I was in the slow lane. It was 3:30 am, so not much traffic. I called 911, hopefully they got the person.
