Backseat passenger bounces out of car on MN highway
KARE-11 TV Station ( NBC Affiliate in Minneapolis-St Paul) ^ | 7/16/12 | N/A

The Minnesota State Patrol says a driver who bounced in and out of a highway ditch unknowingly lost her backseat passenger, who was ejected through a broken window.

The patrol says the 72-year-old driver, Louise Ericksen, was driving southbound on Highway 72 in Beltrami County Sunday when her car strayed into the ditch, hit a sign and broke a back window. As the car bounced along the rough terrain, 15-year-old Kendall Ericksen was ejected out the broken window.

The driver maneuvered her Impala back on the highway and continued southbound without realizing Kendall was missing.

The Duluth News Tribune says when the driver and a front seat passenger discovered Kendall wasn't there, they drove back to the area where they had gone in the ditch and found her standing alongside the highway. She wasn't seriously injured.

I suspect since the Obama admin took over, most SUV’s have gone underground.

Can’t say that I blame them. I often wish I was there, myself.

They’ve formed an alliance with the large soft drinks.

“They’ve formed an alliance with the large soft drinks.”

Grocery store plastic bags are squished, and cowering beneath them.
