No no, it wasn't a street view car, it was a driver less car!

Huh? The same thing happened on ECR at approx. 3:15 pm near the Lucky's in MV east of Hy 85. The gusher started a few minutes before I passed and no car was in sight.
Fire Hydrant terrorist? maybe?

Hope the catch him on a video camera.

Probably an over-worked employee that was let go for thinking too far out of the box which usually isn't far out of the box.
Maybe it was KTVU Tori Campbell on her way home, frustrated with not thinking before reading the teleprompter. While driving she said, "I'll show you 'Bang Ding Oh"'
