Vehicle plows into crowd on Bourbon St., with 14 fatalities

Marsha and El were joking about 'naturally n'awlins' stuff thwarting worse carnage
seeing the video of the truck swerving/accelerating, I was wondering if he just got fed up with traffic on Canal and just said 'screw it'
It honestly did kinda look like that, didn't it (except for what else we've learned now).
