Post car crash (not graphic)
 

I was driving home yesterday (southbound I295) and saw a car smashed into a tree on the northbound side, with rescue vehicles just arriving. I got off the highway for a short stop, and when I went to get back on this is what I saw.

story here

Looking at that car, maybe it is best he wasn't wearing his belt and was thrown from it. There's barely any car left! :eek:

Wow. He must have been flying.

Then there's always this:http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...ck+crash&hl=en


Moral? Don't be the last two cars in the line.

Or drive a 2CV....

This is not a good habit to develop. :headshake

One less "tricked" Honda on the road! When will they ever go away?

...and you can tell it was a "tricked" Honda how, exactly?

Look at the rims.....those are not standard Honda rims....and the color...not to many Hondas in "primer" gray...

Aftermarket rims on a car make it "tricked"? On a 1987 Honda?

Charcoal gray was a standard color on Hondas in the 1980s.

Keep reaching.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it was a Jetta and the story is wrong. I think those are late 80s Jetta rims and color.

.

Check but not Mate - that's either European or highly customized itself.

I think I was remembering the rims from a Wolfsburg edition Jetta, which aren't identical:
