The driver of the truck is now officially a skid mark. Sucks to be him, but that's what you get if you run from the cops.

I think on impact he would've been dead. Looks like he landed on his head, head got ran over by first car, second car ran over all of him and a third car might have hit him again.

I didn't catch it the first couple times I saw the clip either, my focus was more on the rolling vehicle initially . . .

I guess the moral of the story is, if you're going to get into a car chase and intentionally flip your car on the freeway, make sure you're wearing your seatbelt... Words to live by.

And ya, I also feel sorry for the people who saw that come flying at them over the divider. That's gotta leave some psychological scars...

I believe people could get ejected from their car in a rollover accident even when belted. This lead to some law suits against Ford (Explorer) years ago.
