Some states use orange, others yellow, and some bright green stickers. Shape and the location they are placed on the car also vary by jurisdiction. But if a vehicle is removed immediately there wouldn't be a need to place such a sticker on them.

So one might assume (which isn't always a good thing) that he went to his parent's to get the title for the car so he could sell it rather than fixing it. If he returned to Colorado and sold the car, he might have some money on him then, though probably not a lot since it was a broken down car...

It's possible James sounded like he was from "up north" and had been given some grief previously for being a "yankee" in the south. The Canadian story could have been a cover to deflect any hostility. It still sounds suspicious and quite likely not really that James was Jacques.

The air bags would NOT deploy in a collision such as this. Front air bags deploy when the front of the car hits an object while the car is travelling around 35 mph or faster. The car spun and the impact was the left rear. There is not air bag sensor there so an air bag is not going to go off...

You skipped the most important sentence part which comes next. It is normal to remove cars quickly that are going to be an obstacle to traffic. I guarantee you that the emergency vehicles there made far more light than Jason's car (if he was using it as a beacon and wanted to come back to the...

The car would have had to be removed on a rollback (tilting flatbed) truck. My bet is the car was too damaged at either end to be hauled with a two wheel lift truck. I guess people who don't live in the country just don't understand how much trash (and even clothing) is sometimes scattered...

My guess it is dirt behind the front license plate. The plate was either torn off in the accident or removed from the car by or for his parents. That's common when a car is going to be disposed of. The owner keeps the license plates in most states.

It's a part from the car. Could be a canister to hold a liquid for example, or a filler behind the bumper cover. From that angle it is hard to say.

It looks like something white transferred paint to the car (rather than scraping paint away from the car). There is no bare metal so no rust. This could have been known (to his parents) pre-existing damage possibly.

One of three possibilities: 1) The insurance company settled the claim on the car (assuming they had collision coverage) and is auctioning it for salvage. This is a normal course of action with an insured loss. 2) There was no insurance and Jason's family donated the car to be auctioned to...

Greyhound Bus travel was much more popular back then, with stops in many places they bypass now. Or one or both of them had a car (quite likely, I'd think) and we just haven't been told that information. For all we know, they may have each had a car and weren't really traveling together - though...

Sumter Speedway appears to be a local dirt track. It would be quite unrelated to an IMSA race. Different track surface (dirt vs. paved), amateur drivers vs. professional, "stock" cars vs. dedicated race cars, etc. Local dirt tracks used to be all over, many still exist, and many had races...

It would be hard to tell just from tire tread castings if there was a van there because vans and light pickup trucks used the same tires as passenger cars. Now things like track width and wheelbase could help determine the type of vehicle. But the thing that would make a van (and the statement...

Despite the new facts we've learned from the announcement, there has been no evidence made available that he did in fact smoke anything that night. No evidence in the car that we've been told about. No conversations. No evidence of consumption mentioned amongst the belongings found along the...

They have it marked as 10:45 PM, which means before the trip. If you look at the other photos, I think he's in a building not a car.

Could have been as simple as he didn't want the Waze app to talk while he was using the phone for something else.

Waze would stay connected for some time unless he actively exited the app. That's the impression I get from the way they stated it. He quit the Waze app at that time.

A 2012 Routan could have two options: 1) A key that inserts into the switch in the dash. 2) Push button start that does not require the key to be in the switch.

To further expand on Lancaster's past: population was declining in the 1960s and 1970s. It didn't start growing again until the 1990s. Part is probably the move to suburbs which happened across the US, but also many areas in Pennsylvania suffered because they were dependent on coal mining and...

I would not assume it was necessarily nice in the 1970s - it may have been or it may have been run down. Many US cities went through urban blight where neighborhoods deteriorated. Some were torn down, some were gentrified and are nice again (urban renewal), etc.
