SAN ANTONIO -- A car flew off the top of a parking garage and now the 19-year-old driver is in the hospital.

Police say he was racing with another driver when the accident occurred at North Star Mall on San Pedro around 10:34 p.m. Tuesday. Authorities told News 4 San Antonio the 19-year-old driver had his seatbelt on and that’s what kept him alive.

As of Wednesday morning, no charges have been filed.

Here's hoping they send him the bill for the damages and the emergency response. That and the $100,000 or so hospital/ambulance bill might teach him a lesson in time to spare him from his pending Darwin Award. LOL ysckillet, you cant say he wasn't stupid, at the very least. And a majority already know, you included(?), that life is HARD and CRUEL to the Stupid! Therefor, stupid should be painful. Very painful. And expensive.

I guess @Ycskillet must be a family member of this 19 year old MORON in order to defend him. At 19 years of age, I was employed full time, had my own apartment, paid my rent and bills, and was HOME at that time of night…because I had to work the next day. No, I never did anything this stupid. At 19, this is not a “kid” this is an adult, who still acts like a kid…probably spoiled rotten by mommy & daddy, who bought him the car and let him live at home. You’re right, AFretired2002…he has to take responsibility for his actions. What do you want to bet that this fool does not have any medical insurance, and you and I will ultimately pay the HUGE medical bill to keep his worthless carcass alive?

YCSkillet this is the Me Generation your talking about. They aren't smart enough to read the paper or watch the news so they don't realize how often this happens, and because the piece of garbage wasn't charged with anything, he will be out in no time doing more stupid stuff.

YCskillet- this POS is lucky he didn't kill anybody. He is extremely stupid and a 19 year old should know better. Chances are if he is this stupid he is too stupid to have learned a lesson. He will be out of the hospital bragging about how bad a@@ he thinks he is. Bcz he didn't die he will now think he is invincible and will do some other stupid antic that will only end when he kills himself or someone else and ends up in jail. Which is where he should go straightafter the hospital.

pwned.. I guess he lost that race! The IRL stakes of such gambles are pretty high, he's lucky to still be alive. Sometimes they learn the hard way.

so now 19 year old males are just kids, when do we expect them to grow up and when, if ever do we start treating them as adults and hold them responsible for their own actions
