#1 And they were traveling how fast ?
It's been my experience that when troopers drive a big deal like the gov, they fly down the road most rikky tik. A chain reaction swerve crash can happen when one does not check his blind spot, which can be a common oversight.

#2 I don't like Corzine's politics but nobody deserves that kind of abuse. Hope he gets well soon.

#6 I wish Jon Corzine a complete recovery so he can go back to work-- AFTER his term as Governor has expired.

#7 Looks like he's not a big fan of seat belts.

"A law enforcement official close to the investigation told The Associated Press on Thursday that the governor typically does not wear his seat belt, and that his state trooper detail had not been successful in persuading him. The source spoke on condition of anonymity, citing a lack of authorization to speak on the matter." - Linky
