Well, I was with my friend this weekend over at UGA. As we were driving along, another friend cut us off. I was in the passenger seat with my friend daniel in his 350Z and he decided to pass them and get back in front of them for cutting him off.
Well, the road curved to the right, and a raccoon was in the road. We hit the raccoon and started to fish tail. My friend over-corrected to the right, so he tried to go left... when he did, we did a 180 and went across 4 lanes of traffic facing the wrong way. Barely missed hitting 2 other cars, then hit the curb sideways. Then we went through this guys yard and took out a fence. At that point the back end hit a tree and popped the car verticle. It spun around and landed upside down in some kudzu. Needless to say, the car is totaled. The amazing part is, my friend and I both walked away un-hurt for the most part. I cut my hand a bit and I'm a little sore, as is my friend, but we're alive. We took some pictures of the car the next day with my other friends camera. I'll try and post them to my profile if I can get the pics off him. I will say this, the car definitely held up pretty well considering. 5-Star crash rating seems to be pretty accurate. |

Should have died? then wouldnt you be dead? Theres alot of elements and variables that come into play when in an accident not too mention teams of engineers that design vehicles to withstand forces at key points and save lives in accidents.....well unless your driving an american car, in that case its pretty hit or miss ![]() Working at an airbag factory for sometime Ive seen some pretty amazing wreckage where you'd think noone could survive, but thanks to engineering the people were relatively unharmed. |
