Another taco down..

Crap. This thread just got a lot less funny for me.

 

Including a 4 month old. Prayers, and thoughts to all of them.

 

The survivors may have a long road to recovery if at all. I use to know a guy who survived a major car accident only to end up with narcolepsy which basically turned his world upside down.

 

Godspeed.

 

Yikes, I imagine the infant was in the back seat of one of those vehicles. Praying they all make a full recovery.

 

That would be a very, very bad day.

 

The truck drivers CDL is useless to him now. He’s uninsurable. Hope all make a full recovery

 

Man, if he had been sitting anywhere other than the drivers seat, might have been a different outcome. Incredible no deaths there.

 

Yeti survives.

 

Holy crap that is scary

 

Hope everyone recovers from this horrible crash. Mom and 4 month old Flight for Lifed, other driver taken by ambulance, all in serious condition.
Stuff like this makes you appreciate Life.

 

Holy crap, 5 pages and Toyota hasn't said this is normal yet?
Glad no one died.

 

We need to start making trucks out of yeti coolers and rock sliders...

 

Wow!! Somebody is super lucky!

 

My guess is the Taco took the initial hit, not the car. A tractor trailer goes through a car at those speeds. Enough energy was absorbed by the Taco to not simply squash the Altima.

 

Looking at these pictures and the sliders, it looks like the sliders helped keep the passenger compartment intact. Without those sliders, the frame may not of buckled where they did and could of buckled in the passenger area.

 

Assuming it was just those two cars and the semi, yeah. There's not enough front end damage on the altima to suggest it rammed the Taco.

 

Wow, that's just crazy.

 

BRB, going to tell my wife this.

 

I don't think I'd like the feeling of someone else shifting, that would be weird
