#1 He had to be speed'n pretty good to have that guardrail impale itself that far back into that car/van/??



#2 If he wasn't a religious man before the wreck I bet he is now! :--) :-laf

Good Googly Moogly! Where'd the engine go? It looks like the guardrail pushed the engine downward, but I can't tell. Got Smoke has to be right about the speeding - he must've been doing a pretty good clip to impale hisself that much!

Saw a wreck like that a few years ago... The driver was basically in the trunk attached to the end of the guard rail missing one leg. Pretty awful.

Saw one like that a couple weeks ago. Kid driving a Ford Focus (one of Ford's hopped up model, maybe SVT) ran it into a guardrail. It went all the way through and out the back. They cut it off in the front and back to haul the car off. It broke the back off of the drivers seat. It didn't kill the kid, but he was flown. Lots of blood in the car.

25 years ago a good friend of mine "fell asleep at the wheel" on his way home on a country road in Pa. Luckily, or maybe there's more to it than luck, when he went off the road and thru a few sections of split-rail fencing he was appanently slumped over onto the passenger side seat. Several rails went thru the windshield, knocked the steering wheel off the column and continued thru both front and back seats :--) Jim G.

Many years ago I lived next door to a highway patrolman who had worked many accidents and was close to retirement. He showed me a picture of what he said was the only accident he had ever worked where not having a seatbelt on probably saved the drivers life. Guard rail went through the car's left front wheelwell and pushed the driver over to the passenger side down on the seat and passed over his head. Had he been in a seatbelt, he would have been crushed by the rail. He then went on to say that he had worked many accidents where not having a seatbelt on caused serious injuries or even worse.
