Car lands upsidedown in water
COTTAGE GROVE, Ore. - A car crashed into a water-filled ditch along Interstate 5 on Wednesday morning, injuring the driver.
Kara E. Linn, 28, of Yoncalla, Ore., lost control of her 1996 Acura on wet pavement around 9:20 a.m.
The car went off the road and overturned before coming to rest upsidedown in 3 feet of water, state police said.
South Lane Fire and Rescue got Linn out of the car and took her to Sacred Heart Medical Center at RiverBend. State police characterized her injuries as not life-threatening.
The crash happened on I-5 northbound about 3 miles south of Cottage Grove.
Wife or no wife speed was more likely the reason for this crash....
@Postone WHAT THE HELL DO YOU KNOW? AS I STATED...THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS ON NOT ALLOWING THE CAR TO SLOW DOWN WHEN IT STARTED TO HYDROPLANE...YOU WANT TO MAKE SOMETHING OF IT? GOT SOMETHING TO PROVE COME ON OVER 973 MATHIS HILL RD YONCALLA I AM HERE ALL DAY. I WAS HERE TO MAKE A VALID POINT IN RETORT TO HOLLOW UNSUBSTANTIATED COMMENTS FROM YOU GIRLS ON HERE. YOUR ASSERTION WITHOUT ANY FURTHER OR PRIOR KNOWING OF THE MATTER CLEARLY DISPLAYS YOUR EXPERTISE AND WISDOM.
YOU ASS CLOWNS ON HERE ARE WORSE THAN A SEWING CIRCLE.  THE WRECK WAS CAUSED IN A LARGE PART DUE TO THE CRUISE CONTROL BEING ON IN ADVERSE CONDITIONS. THAT WAS MY WIFE AND YOU ARE COWARDS THAT NEED TO GET OUT OF YOUR MOMS HOUSE AND GET A LIFE.
Put your make up on before you leave.

or just drive a little more careful. Â
Wet pavement is par for the course. Â Â
Probably hydroplaning (speed) or texting? Hope she will be ok and glad no one else was involved. Would like to see the report for cause.
