Kids These Days

So I'm driving home through the neighborhood and this scene caught my eye. I rushed home, grabbed my camera and came back for this photo set.

According to a friend at the scene, two 16-year old kids decided to make a run to 7/11 for a Slurpee. They were on their way back, heading down this alley (probably too fast) when their right front tire caught the anchoring cable for the telephone pole. The car rode straight up the cable and got stuck there. The kid sitting down was the driver.

Incidentally, I was a member of the South Park Action Council when the mural on the wall was painted. SPAC sponsored the mural.
