| Corzine's SUV went 91 mph before crash
CAMDEN, N.J. (AP) — The SUV carrying Gov. Jon Corzine was traveling about 91 mph moments before it crashed, Superintendent of State Police Col. Rick Fuentes said Tuesday. The governor was critically injured when the vehicle crashed into a guardrail on the Garden State Parkway just north of Atlantic City last week. He apparently was not wearing his seat belt as he rode in the front passenger's seat. The speed limit along that stretch of the parkway is 65 mph. The state trooper-driven sport-utility vehicle was in the left lane with its emergency lights flashing when a pickup tried to get out of its way. Instead, it set off a chain reaction that resulted in the crash. ... http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2007-04-17-corzine-recovers_N.htm |

It looks like the air bags (if any) in the car did not go off at all.  |
