Baltimore's Washington Monument Damaged When Dozing Driver Crashes Into Wall (Huffington post)

A car crashed into a Washington Monument park wall on Thursday at
approximately 10 a.m., overturning and injuring a passenger and damaging the
historic monument.

The flipped over four-door gray sedan blocked traffic on Washington Place just
south of the 178-foot column to West Centre Street for at least an hour while
police investigated and roped off a damaged stone wall in the park's South
Garden.

Two men were in the car, which was a rental vehicle licensed in Connecticut,
when the driver fell asleep and crashed into the wall, causing the car to flip
over, police spokesman Det. Vernon Davis said. The driver was uninjured but
paramedics transported the passenger to University of Maryland Medical Center
with neck and back injuries.

Video: Intrepid motorcyclist rides Ural through blizzard (Autoblog)

Filed under: Videos, Motorcycle

The Midwest was hit by an intense snow storm earlier this week, and while the
conditions may have been more appropriate for a snowmobile than most cars, at
least one person found it acceptable weather in which to ride a motorcycle.
Granted, this wasn't your typical motorcycle. Instead, it was a two-passenger,
two-wheel-drive Ural being ridden along the snow-covered Interstate 65 in
Indianapolis.

On Ural motorcycles equipped with a sidecar, both rear wheels can actually
driven by the engine, depending on the model chosen. This might give the bike
better handling in such poor weather, but it does nothing to shield the rider
from the 29-degree temperature. We're sure newscasters see plenty of crazy
things all the time when doing live feeds, but an adventurous motorcycle rider
in white-out blizzard conditions has got to be a fairly unique sight.

The video is actually a recording of a news report so the quality isn't that
great, but you can still check it out after the jump.
