    Driving on I-75 I saw this car hauler with a destroyed Taco on the back. I could not get photos of the front but the drivers side was pushed back beyond the wheel. As you can see the bed was F-ed up bad. :eek:

    The beauty of it was none of this carnage entered the cab of the truck. This driver took an E ticket ride and clearly survived.

    Vive le puissant Taco :headbang:

    Looks like he got rear-ended with a pretty big impact.

    It appears he got hit hard in the rear and pushed forward into another vehicle because the front was totalled too.

    Several thousand pounds of thumb by the looks of it. Ouch! My mom has been been an ER nurse for 35 years and we were talking the other day about how safe cars are these days. She used to see major fatalities all the time from crashes, then major injuries, now minor injuries or "just getting checked out" after an accident with no apparent injury. Cars have made amazing improvements in the last 50 years.
