Car in the American River

I took my son and one of his friends' for a ride on the American River Bike Trail (ARBT). We went up to Sunrise, climbed a roller that Dylan thought was a mountain, and rode back. On each way there were stops to eat blackberries, which grow all over the place. There'll be many coming ripe over the next few weeks.

Anyway, on the way back we saw something interesting in the river. A car, smack dab in the center, and sunk. I did a little Google search and uncovered the story (which includes a picture).

Maybe the guy was texting and ran off the road.
