They would run rings about me. Makes me feel a sap. Knot.

They really are quite remarkable. Pushed the engine right back into the cabin and burned and it has a mark on it. Good to go for another 100 years of killing morons. No repair required.
Damn immovable objects getting in the way.
My cousin had that issue once…her car lost against the fence. Gas instead of brake.
As for this situation. My only sympathy is toward the passengers. They don’t deserve to die because the driver is an idiot.

Canadian trees baffle me, get hit by a car at 130km/h... not a scratch.... 20km/h wind blows through town and the entire thing falls over...
Back to the torque wrench discussion. Hit it with a car midway up the canopy and the results are far different.
A car is like a mosquito hitting you in the leg. Maybe a bee at full blast.
The canopy acts like a sail so the effect is MUCH greater as a whole.
Plus a lot of these trees have very shallow roots.
Leverage. A car impacts at just above what would be the pivot point. Wind pushes against the entire top of the tree.
The tree can see the car coming and brace itself for the impact. Wind, not so much.
Tow truck crashed into a vehicle turning left. Two tow truck drivers got 172 charges for racing to a crash. It would be interesting to see what that did to their commercial insurance.

Giant speed humps seem reasonable. At 20 km/h they are no big deal. For many in the spandex mafia on lightweight bikes, they would not appreciate how long they would be in the air at 56 km/h.

That was on a bicycle!
Sad one near Barrie. Very likely kids being dumb with tragic consequences. Six kids in their early 20's on a dark closed road at night in a Veloster and it crashed into a construction site (which was why the road has been closed for months). It looks like it rolled and burned. All died. Ooof.
6 people in a Veloster??
Yup.
Yes just saw this one, very stupid and very sad..
They apparently ended up in a sewer pipe under construction. Probably no way out. Awful. Definitely outdriving their headlights.
Just one lapse in judgement..They apparently ended up in a sewer pipe under construction. Probably no way out. Awful. Definitely outdriving their headlights.
Reading the comments on YT it seems to be a pretty good split about how people feel about this.
I will say (in my opinion), they made a bad choice and paid for it.
I think Forrest Gump said it best...
