The information from the Westport Police was pretty straightforward:
At 6:34 last night 25-year-old Zexiao Lu of Bridgeport was driving his 2005 Mazda toward Fairfield on Post Road East in the inside lane, just past Athletic Shoe Factory. A 2010 Honda was in the outside lane.
The operator — 42-year-old Daniella Stavreva-Zlatareva of Southport — made an unsafe change to the inside lane. That caused Lu to lose control, cross all westbound lanes, crash through wooden fence, go airborne and come to rest inside one of the trailers at 1655 Post Road East.
Stavreva-Zlatareva was issued an infraction for an unsafe lane change.
Here’s my question: How fast do you have to be going to fly through the air across 2 lanes of traffic and end up with your car all the way inside someone’s home?
I would say: pretty damn fast.
