The more I think about this the more it sounds like a tall tale to me. Everyone knows that all Mustangs will make an abrupt 90* turn and run into something at anytime without warning. The odds of one reaching over 200mph without this happening are on par with finding a Unicorn.
Back when Texas DPS used to run Mustangs I used to see a number of them in the auction yard that had been hit hard in the rear... I thought it was odd. I asked the guy that ran the place about it once and he said what was happening was that the troopers were driving them at high speed and they would catch a crosswind or go under a bridge and the car would suddenly swap ends and hit something. Yikes!
