Witnesses reported the vehicle had been speeding southbound before the crash. Mooney was alone and escaped before flames spread. Bend Fire & Rescue put out the fire, while all lanes of traffic were closed for nearly an hour. Mooney was taken to St. Charles–Bend with non-life-threatening injuries and cited for DUII, reckless driving, reckless endangering, and criminal mischief.
