4 NY teens hurt when driver holds breath, faints

By Hurley, McKenna & Murtz

ADVERTISEMENTS

As a car and truck accident attorney, I must encourage all drivers to drive with the utmost care, especially young drivers lacking in experience. Jokes, pranks, and dares are never wise when behind the wheel. This week, ?four upstate New York teenagers who tried to hold their breath for the time it took their car to go a third of a mile were hurt when the driver fainted.? (AP, 5/26).

Authorities say four teenages boys were ?traveling together late Monday night when they decided to try to hold their breath while riding through Garbutt, a rural Rochester-area hamlet that's just three-tenths of a mile long.? The 19- year old driver fainted while holding his breath, causing the car to hit a boulder. The driver is paraplegic for whom the car was specially equipped to drive. Fortunately all four teens were okay after being treated at a hospital.
