A rebel? It sounds like a sad case of un or poorly treated mental illness to me (based on what his Mom said). I find it strange to attribute much logical thought (even if it is merely a commitment to rebeling and being different than the norm) to a sad setof actions which clearly have brought pain to a lot of family members, could have been much worse because he took such a danagerous path and ended in the death of someone who had so much.

What blew my mind was that he did four miles in the oncoming lane without killing someone. This is a stretch of the Thruway that I travel frequently. The traffic disruption resulting from the five-hour closing was felt all the way to Albany. I feel for the guy, because one or two pills a day could've dealt with what was probably just a chemical imbalance. But sympathy aside, I'm glad this wasn't one of those similar stories that ends with the guy hitting head-on a van full of kids coming back from a field trip ...
