What a spectacular car this idiot destroyed!

As the article notes, this is a very dangerous curve as now 3 accidents have occurred in less than a year. Since it is a County Road, someone needs to contact their road division to have this addressed.

Looking at the picture, it's a miracle the driver survived this crash.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the road. This guy was DWI...that's why he crashed. The Accident on December 7 also involved a guy who was drinking. Road is fine. Stop the drunk drivers before they kill someone.

I live around the corner, and it's not a dangerous curve. However, there is no shoulder on that part of Holmdel Road, so there is no leeway for these drunks when they veer off of the road. And don't forget about that clown that hit the pole there while running from another accident on Beers Street.
I'm just happy that this fool didn't knock the power lines out again.

I pray for that man and his family and hope he recovers fully.

As to the curve on that stretch of Holmdel Road, it's quite dangerous for everyone (obviously even more perilous while under the influence), and bad weather makes it worse (slick leaves in autumn are almost as bad as snow). One has to slow way down, apply brakes, and hope there isn't a truck coming in the opposite direction as they often tend to slide into your lane. School buses positively FLY around that curve. I've witnessed it countless times while driving my children to Indian Hill School (it's partly why I do drive them). The curve needs reconfiguring, or signage, or guardrails, or police presence (and ticketing) or something.

Lets not forget he is a human being and he has a family, no one is always perfect and this was a sad mistake in judgement he is a decent man that has many that love him...be kind n say prayers its much better than judging...we all live in glass houses so dont throw stones

Well said

Just so you guys understand this "fool" and "idiot" is a human being just like yourselves. If this was a family member of your own it would be a tragic event and you would never think twice about making that type of comment. You have no idea what I truly want to say to you and do to you both for the comments you made.

I hope you change your tone before karma comes and bites you where it would truly hurt. He is a great friend of mine and is suffering enough right now he doesn't need remarks from ignorant people like you two right now as well. Get well soon Jarrod, love ya brother

very nice guy...just made a mistake.my the lord be with him..

prayers to you, Jarrod. More golden tee awaits my friend.

Really has kindness really left us...I own my crap and know we are all living with something..for Gods sake open your heart and learn to forgive n pray, it could be someone you know n love , yes I said that

Back to my original point - the curve by itself isn't particularly dangerous. I could see more of a case for the curves at Van Brackle or Line. Most people seem to navigate it successfully every day. The real danger on this section of the road is that there are all sorts of obstacles a foot from the driving lane. Look at the utility pool south of Longview, or any number of poles, trees, or mailboxes along the way. There are plenty of accidents on this section of road that do not involve the curve at all.
Now - how many of you would have liked to have been traveling in the oncoming line when this guy was going through, or out in that backyard? There are many more people with families that these "fools" and "idiots" kill or maim with their irresponsible, reckless actions. It could be someone you love who happens to find themselves in the path of someone like this. Or should we just give him a pass because he had the good fortune to harm no one other than himself?

Curves in any roadway are very dangerous to all people who routinely exceed the posted speed limits. Yet the same people who stay within the speed limits, also manage to stay on the roadway.

Although I am grateful that Jarrod survived, which is a miracle of GOD, I must confess that too often drunk drivers KILL innocent people who are not even aware of the danger--drunk person whose car is a weapon!! So, yes, Jarrod had a choice-- he could have arrived safely home had he followed the law-- "do not drink and drive."

Update, 10 am: The Holmdel accident victim is in critical condition at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, according to a spokesperson there.

Thanks for the victim's update. Out of respect for this man and his family, since he is still in critical condition, I think that further postings about DUI and/or the curve should cease until he is recovered.

How many cars a day go through that curve and don't crash. 3 in a year is not alot, if thousands of people navigated the curve correctly.

My condolences go out to the driver of the car. Bottom line: a fellow human being and their family are suffering. Other then best wishes, the only appropriate comments are that we all should slow down and drive safely.

I can not understand the sympathy here. Driving a car under the influence is the same thing as pointing a loaded gun at a crowd. This guy fired that gun and missed.. This is only my opinion and a rather extreme analogy but i do not know the man and might feel different if I did. Would still tell him he was an idiot either way. Call a cab anyone?

Hindsight is 20/20. Foresight is where true good judgement is found. Nothing good can happen when you suck down drinks and drive a car. Everyone knows that. Some choose to ignore that fact and deserve what they get. If you keep enabling this dude, guarantee he gets another dwi within 2 years. Guarantee it.

i cannot believe how insensitive most of these people are. we all make mistakes, it is not necessary to speak of why and how this happened, open your heart and pray for him and his family. this could very well be one of your sons, or brothers, etc.

First of all I want to say to you superior perfect people that I didn't realize there were so many. You don't know him.I DO !!!!!!!! He is a wonderful man who made an error. YOU HAVENT. ?????? We are all human. There is so much more to him. He has a heart of gold, very loving and giving Right now he needs prays. I hope all of the critics go look inside and find good. You are a vicious group. And Christina is it necessary to tell all where he is. Give him peace more important than DOING UPDATES. GOD BLESS YOU JARROD. LOVEYOU AND GOD IS WATCHING IVER YOU. UOU ARE LOVEDBY MANY

Not one person who has made a comment on here is perfect. It seems that some of you have forgotten that. Jarrod made a mistake. He is a great guy that would do anything to help someone. He is suffering now and will face what comes legally when he is better. And, a jury will decide his fate NOT YOU! So get over it. Get well JRod!

Am I the only one who thinks that it's funny that article has to explain what an Aston Martin is ? Seriously is ms Johnson the only person on earth who has never seen a James bond movie ? (yes I know I should be making "serious" comment)

Honestly you people have nothing better to do. This is coming from Jarrods FAMILY. Let him be and let our family be. Is it tragic...yes...was it a bad act of judgement...yes...will he and the rest of his family reap the consequences...yes...TRUE FRIENDS would never ever allow a friend to drink and drive...ever...so those who feel badly and so forth..I hope this serves as an example to all of you people...and for those who knew that perhaps he had substance abuse problems, shame on u for brushing it under the rug. No self respecting individuals who cares about a person as much as they claim they do or did would ever allow this. Is he a big boy...yes...but friends do not let friends drink and drive. But it's all fun and games to u all.

what a bunch of hypocrites hiding behind their computers. I will go out on a limb here and say that almost everyone with the negative comments has had a friend or relative drive under the influence . That's a Fact ! Maybe they were more fortunate and either didn't get harmed or did and were barely scolded by you perfect people. Calling him and idiot and other names does not make this matter better in any way shape or form. From what I understand he is in very grave condition. Regardless of how irresponsible and selfish it may have been for him to be driving in an alleged impaired state. Why don't we all just say thanks that no innocent people were additionally harmed and give our thoughts and players to Jarrod's family at this time in need. He made a terrible judgement call to get behind the wheel and he is paying for it. This is a young man that overcame great odds and became very successful .I bet he would do it right if given another chance . He is not a bad person by any means . Cut him a little slack people . Like I said we all probably have had people in our lives (friends or family) that have done something of this nature and I bet you probably were't as harsh on them. It was more like "Oh thank God your okay that was very stupid you could have killed yourself " Right ? Think back and tell me if I'm wrong. If I am . well then you have the only set of perfect friends and family in the world .

Seriously, jarrod has a heart of gold and is very giving, hence the reason for the leaches. No one ever had his best interest at heart!! Those who claim they know jarrod...do not really know jarrod...so pride yourselves on something else. If any one really cared, they would have helped him get help. It was his choice, but it's completely hypocritical to sit here and say all these things because of the guilt u all feel for not doing anything when you all had a chance.

Update for those concerned: the Holmdel accident victim's condition remains in critical condition at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital as of 10 a.m. Friday, according to a spokeswoman.

I WANT TO THANK ALL OF THOSE FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS WHO UNDERSTAND THAT YES HE MADE AN ERROR IN JUDGEMENT BUT STILL CARE ABOUT HIM. I LIKE WHAT MAX SAID. TY MAX. IF ONLY WE TURN BACK THE CLOCK BUT WE CANT. DONT YOU THINK HE WILL BE HARD ON HIMSELF?? DOESN'T NEED YOUR HARSH WORDS. RIGHT NOW ALL HE NEEDS ARE PRAYS. REMEMBER "IF YOU HAVE NOTHING NICE TO. SAY THAN SAY NOTHING. KEEP PRAYING AND I THANK YOU FROM JARROD AND HIS FAMILY

"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone"- John 8:7
" Judge not lest ye be judged"-Matthew 7:1

Compassion: Sympathetic conciousness of others' distress together with a desire to alleviate it.

Thank God nobody else was hurt. May the Lord bless the Jarrod Isoldi and help him to heal. May God also bless and keep his family safe from any future unkind postings and self righteous individuals. My prayers and sympathies.

While I refrain from disparaging personal remarks about this individual the fact remains that innocent people lose their lives every day due to impaired drivers. So lets temper the hostile comments with compassion but look to our judicial system to mete out appropriate punishment.

punish really? i think thats been done

LOKO
JROD, My prayers go out to you and your family.

This is a sad tragic situation. My prayers go out Jarrod and his family. Even though he has been through a lot, his actions are intolerable in the eyes of the law. But rather than crucify the guy, maybe look into why he was drinking and driving. The article mentioned a controlled substance found in the car. Maybe he has issues that need to be addressed such as addiction rehabilitation. I'm not condoning his actions, but addressing his issues would be far better than trying to hang the guy. Luckily, no one else got hurt; but he needs help before he does the same thing again. Good Luck and Get Well !!!!!

Ok first its NOT the ROADS fault.It didnt move or jump out the way. This man was under the influence of cds or alcohol either one tells you DO NOT OPERATE A CAR OR MACHINERY.RIGHT ON THE BOTTLE. This was not an accident.it was an intoxicated driver driving.Glad he didnt kill a kid or a man/woman on their way to work...

any update on his condition ?
