Ford Bronco Sport takes a tumble down Colorado's Black Bear Pass

Ford Bronco Sport takes a tumble down Colorado's Black Bear Pass



A Ford Bronco Sport rolled approximately 400 feet from Colorado's notorious Black Bear Pass near Telluride Sunday morning, ejecting the driver and a dog (along with the Bronco Sport's engine) in the process. Both the driver and dog were hurt in the accident, but a passenger who had gotten out to spot apparently survived the ordeal unscathed.

According to The Durango Herald, the Bronco Sport was being driven by an inexperienced driver who was visiting from out-of-state. The driver was attempting to abort a climb up a series of one-way switchbacks when, in the process of turning around, the vehicle lost purchase on the rocky surface and rolled down the side of the mountain.
