Default Damn misleading headline:

SUV crashes through guard rail on LSD

Was the guard rail on LSD?

No.

Was the SUV?

Yes, it was - Lake Shore Drive.

It was a typo. They meant to write:

Driver on LSD crashes SUV through guard rail

I'm sure they'll get it right next time. -Dave

drown-the-girl incident was the bridge's fault.
