MONTERREY, Mexico — A car has plowed into a bike race along a highway near the US-Mexico border, killing one and injuring 10 others.

Police investigator Jose Alfredo Rodriguez says the 28-year-old driver was apparently drunk and fell asleep when he crashed into the race.

A photograph taken by a city official shows bicyclists and equipment being hurled high in to the air by the collision.

Rodriguez says Juan Campos was charged with killing Alejandro Alvarez, 37, of Monterrey.

Authorities say the wreck happened 15 minutes into the race along a highway between Playa Bagdad and Matamoros.

Campos says he is an American citizen living in Brownsville, Texas. U.S. consulate spokesman Todd Huizinga said officials were looking into whether Americans were involved.

- This is awful. I fucking hate drunk drivers. Is it so damn hard to make some sort of arrangements before you booze yourself into oblivion?

- I reject the idea that you can be drunk and asleep at the same time. Your drunkenness can cause you to fall asleep, but drunkenness is something you have to be awake for.

You can certainly be legally intoxicated, based on your BAC level and asleep at the same time.

Absolutely. No argument there.

Remember when a car backed into Bendis' bike while it was parked outside Excalibur?
That was funny.

This is kind of fucked up, though.

Kind of?

It's horrific that it happened. It made me feel like a jerk for always ramming into motorcyclists in GTAIV.

You know whats fucked up?

All I saw of this threads title from the main forum page was "Drivers Hits Pack Of..."

And I thought, "Oh no, I hope it wasn't doggies or something."

And then when I found out it was people, I was relieved.

As I understand it, you can tell if someone is going to be a serial killer if they mistreat animals as kids.

So we're cool.
