Got in a nice accident last year. I live in Chicago. I was riding shotgun in my friend's car coming home on the Dan Ryan (a 5 lane expressway, mix of civilian and commercial traffic, packed at rush hour but moving at 55MPH). Some asshole truck driver in the lane to the left of us decided he wanted to get into our lane without looking and turned the front right tire of his 18 wheeler into the rear driver's side door of my buddy's early 90s Mercury Tracer. It was a ride needless to say. We are very lucky to be alive today. We got turned, hit the wall, spun around, were staring the truck head on face to face, got hit again, and got ground in between the divider wall and the truck. Ended up turned around 180 degrees facing oncoming traffic. Here's the best of the pics:
Both of us walked away without a scratch. The car wasn't that lucky.
