FRANKLIN LAKES - A Westchester County man died Thursday afternoon in a crash on Route 287.

Joseph Gianelli, 58 of Irvington, N.Y., was pronounced dead at the scene after his Chevrolet Corvette struck the rear of a tractor-trailer at about 1 p.m., near milepost 65, state police said.

The truck, operated by Clouis Oquinn Jr., 52, of Virginia, was parked on a northbound shoulder when the Corvette plowed into it. Oquinn was not injured, officials said.

The crash was under investigation Thursday evening.

 

Someone posted this last week sometime. I agree, thats pretty sick! I think its one of the worst accidents ive seen.You can actually see his arm and blood from where he hit the trailor!

 

 

holy mother of.......there's no skidmarks to speak of either.....he must've been flying

 

ABS.

 

trust me, I've locked up the wheels on a C5 with ABS on, and I think anyone would if they were staring at what he was.

 

Fixed the quote. Really, it's either sleeping or piss-drunk. NASTY looking accident though.

 

Hey......How do you lock up the tires with "anti-lock" braking?

my S2000 has ABS and even on the track it doesn't lock up unless I am sliding sideways (which i try to avoid if possible).

 

Oh man, I think I've seen this car/guy around here. There's 2 C6 vettes in my neighborhood, and this may have been one of em.

rip

 

That is a C5..
