Rumor says it may be rebuilt in 3-5 years, if the economy gets better...

Wow what an idiot. This guy should have his drivers license revoked for life.

He's the direct cause of $10M in property damage, due to his stupidity, and his response is "I don’t think I made a mistake" I'd have deported his ass back to Iran by now.

I hate how the article starts out with "A 2004 Honda Civic apparently lost control..." Um. The car didn't lose control. And the year, make, and model is irrelevant. The *driver* lost control. Because he is an idiot. It wasn't some mysterious Act of God that could not have been predicted or avoided. It was the extreme incompetence of the driver that caused this.

Arrogant POS ought to have not only his driver's license revoked, but his student visa ought to get pulled too. Send his arse packing back to where he came from...

Hmm a lot of ignorant knee-jerk comments coming from this.

Idiot drivers are a fact of life when you have so many motorists on the road. Fortunatly none of you guys are in positions of power to severly harm a poor foreigner who is most likely regretting his mistake every day.

Never take reporter sound bites as truth. I'm a master at editing sound clips of people down to completey change their intended meaning.

Knee-Jerk? I don't see where anyone read he was an Iranian student and accused him of being a terrorist...
