Are we all looking at the same picture?! https://tribkcpq.files.wordpress.com/2017/02/suvive.jpg?quality=85&strip=all&w=770 How many people know EXACTLY where this car was at and can honestly say that they would have seen it from the road, through brush, 20 feet down an embankment, while doing 45 mph? If you're headed southbound, you will NEVER see it on a good day! Northbound a passenger may have seen it. My sis had a Celica, they are TINY! If he were in a pickup it would have been a different story. 

Mr. Jones's situation is unfortunate, but thankfully turned out positively. The vitriol for Sheriff Benedict/dept is unnecessary. If LE doesn't get results fast enough for ya, network, and dispatch some friends to look! I would have been HAPPY to look...had I found out about the incident! I would need the same info that LE had...year, make, model, color, license plate (when possible), name (Mr. Jones would have worked) and description of driver.
