I then drove through the median and into oncoming traffic reaching 90 plus MPH, missing two cars, and jumping a 4 foot barbed wire fence without touching the fence. I continued into the desert until my passenger was able to put the truck in park hitting a few trees and bushes along the way. I then woke up when paramedics and first responders were already there. …”
