"I'm driving, and I'm looking, and I'm like, 'There is an expletive boat!' I had seconds to respond. I mean, it was surreal. I braced myself very, very tightly for impact. I was certain I was going to hit the boat."
"What I understand from the CHP is they contacted the registered owner of the boat. The registered owner is claiming that they sold the boat, and they don't know who they sold the boat to. I mean, that's a little fishy. Please help us find who was driving."
"Another car captured dashcam video of the runaway vessel seconds prior -- crossing three lanes of the eastbound 91 Freeway after becoming unhitched from a vehicle. California Highway Patrol shut down the freeway for several hours, leaving drivers in disbelief."
A boat trailer became unhitched from its vehicle on the 91 Freeway in Bellflower, California, and crossed three lanes of traffic before jumping the median into oncoming lanes. Driver Cassandra Sorrell narrowly avoided collision with the runaway boat, bracing for impact with only seconds to react. Her Tesla dashcam recorded the dangerous moment. The incident caused the freeway to shut down for several hours. Sorrell suffered whiplash and minor vehicle damage. The California Highway Patrol is investigating to locate the responsible driver. The registered boat owner claims to have sold the vessel but cannot identify the buyer, complicating the investigation.
