The San Miguel Sheriff’s Office said a 23-year-old woman is seriously hurt after a rollover crash in Telluride. The sheriff’s office said she was in a Jeep with her 22-year-old male friend on Bridal Veil Rd.
The friend told deputies he shut off the engine, applied the emergency brake and stepped out of the Jeep to help direct a driver behind him around a tight turn.
He said the jeep started to roll while the woman was still in the passenger seat. The man tried to jump back into the Jeep to steer it, but he was thrown into rocks when it went off the road.
The sheriff’s office said the Jeep rolled down several switchbacks, throwing the woman out of the vehicle. It came to a stop on the road.

Oops sorry, 11 months ago.
So he shut off the engine, set the emergency brake and got out of the Jeep. Then……….the Jeep started rolling downhill. Did he forget to mention that he and his GF were having a fight and that he got out to cool off….perhaps forgetting to apply the brake?
