Car Surfing in Pittsburgh
| If people talking on cell phones while driving wasn’t a distraction, how about people performing stunts outside the car or “car surfing?” |
Off-duty State Trooper Jolando Hinton witnessed just that on July 13, 2005 while traveling southbound. Brian Crawford of Irwin, a student at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh and aspiring stuntman, was seen climbing around the vehicle he was a passenger in, performing stunts that will make you cringe all while traveling 60 MPH. One of his friends was videotaping the stunts, which included hanging on the side of the car and “Superman” where he hung vertically only a foot off the ground, with an Art Institute camera. The stunts continued for two miles until on-duty troopers pulled the car over near Robinson Town Centre and found four men in the car ranging in age from 19 to 21. They faced reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct charges, and punishment by the school for using equipment in a criminal activity.
