That is sad, but wow Darwin at work. If the conditions are so bad you can't see anything at all SLOW DOWN or stop, get someone else to drive you.

Sad story. We get more than a few that come to the Adirondacks thinking it's like Central Park, get lost and it's up to search teams to try to find them. People just don't use their brains.

WX forecast bad = stay inside!

Raining hard = slow down!

Strange, reminds me of the swimmer who was drowning and as getting rescued was attacked by a shark. In Brazil

Yup... And I don't know about this boat ramp, bi pretty much everyone I've seen had several warning signs....

The whole thing has a Darwin Award tone to it...
