check out this accident that happened last Thursday in California on Hwy 101. http://www.independent.com/news/2012/jan/12/accident-shuts-down-101-south-buellton/
I was simply amazed that anyone in the car survived, much less suffering only moderate injuries. They were certainly lucky the military convoy had the extended-boom forklift to support the car while the rescue team got the occupants out of the car.
