[ACCIDENT] Firefighters Remove the Roof on a C4 Corvette to Free Man Injured in Crash


Rescuers had to turn a C4 Corvette coupe into a convertible early Wednesday afternoon after the driver crashed into a tree, trapping him inside the vehicle.

Firefighters removed both doors and the halo from the white 1995 Corvette to extricate the 24-year-old driver, who was trapped inside the car for about 25 minutes.

The accident happened about 12:15 p.m. Wednesday in Shawnee, Kansas, in the 13600 block of Blackfish Parkway, just east of Park Street.

The driver received an unintended thrill ride when he was headed west on Blackfish Parkway and lost control, skidding across the oncoming lane, jumping the curb, and skidding sideways through the grass before striking a tree with the driver’s door.

Despite what was termed non-life-threatening injuries, the driver was carried by Johnson County Med-Act to Overland Park Regional Medical Center to get checked out.

Police are accustomed to answering calls on this stretch of Blackfish Parkway, including a car that crashed into a house at Blackfish Parkway and Pflumm Road in 2011.

Another driver, in April 2014, rammed through two privacy fences and a backyard before scraping a home’s foundation and crashing head-on into a tree. The worst crash caused a fatality in June 2014 just across the street from last week’s accident.

  1. You would think that older Corvettes would be quite rare given the number of Corvettes that end up being written off as a result of their power and capabilities far exceeding the capabilities (and judgment) of those who drive them.

  2. I guess if that fucking asshole knew what he was doing behind the wheel, he wouldn’t be looking stupid sitting in his wrecked twisted up Vette!
