How many more cars are involved that they closed down more than one exit off the Merrit?

----*UPDATE:*----


News 12: State police have identified the driver in the Greenwich crash as a 19-year-old from New Hampshire. Police say Branden Myers sustained serious injuries in the crash. Click here to see extended video of the crash from Chopper 12.


HOLY SHIT, he survived! Although with serious injuries. Miraculous. I wonder if he'll hold on.. And hope no one else was in the car.


----*UPDATE 2:*----

(12/16/11) STAMFORD - Police say the teen involved in a serious accident on the Merritt Parkway has died.

Police say Branden Myers, 19, was headed home to New Hampshire when he lost control.

Emergency crews say it took nearly an hour to get him out using the jaws of life.


He died after all. So sad... You almost wish it could've been an instant death in this case.
