    Why the hell is he naked?
    Don't trust anybody. Especially that guy in the mirror.

    More than likely his clothes tore apart in the wreckage. Considering how tightly he was pinned in the car (and the fact that he is in several pieces), it's not all that surprising that his clothes didn't stay intact.

    For me, it's the third picture that's the most disturbing: the guy really was way over into the other lane. Sad.

    Brings a whole new meaning to rollover minutes. Darwinism at its best. I feel bad for the truck driver. I'd probably retire after something like that.

    How is it possible to show up at the scene of that gnarly accident and conclude just what caused that guy to travel over in that lane, look at that horrible mess,hard to believe a functional cell phone would even be able to be found in that mess. I am sure they can pull phone records and narrow down the time, I am just curious how you even begin to figure out just what the hell happened when you show up to that accident. That is one horrible thing to see. That is probably the worst accident i have ever seen pictures of.It's actually pretty amazing to look at the condition of what was formerly a car then to see the condition of the truck. That just proves the point that nobody wins a fight with a big truck.Wonder how the driver of the truck fared in the middle of all that?

    jager, with any wreck, when a cop shows up a few things go thru their mind to check as to why it may have happened. Something like this, were they forced to move over for some reason and got smashed? That is where a witness could come in and solve that question. Were they simply not paying attention? Were they asleep? Were they on drugs? Autopsy and witness' can help with those. If they find a phone in the wreckage, they will instantly go pull the cell phone records to make sure they cover all bases.

    Saw one almost that bad on southbound I-75 in FL. Just south of the Ocala scale, I was told J B Hunt was setting out his triangles when a 4-wheeler slammed into his ICC bumper, and pushed it to the trailer axle. Not sure just how they got the car out from under the back of the trailer. Two of the big wreckers could not pull them apart. The car went under the trailer far enough, the air-bag would have done no good at all. But, why on the shoulder, for cripe sake?

    Or the DOT bear in GA that was stopped behind a mini-van, about 6 feet of grass between them and the pavement, with lights going... A full sized van rear-ended the DOT bear and made the about half as long as factory length. I never thought of "texting" as the cause in either case, but it sure could have been.
    Destroy the cities...
    and they will rebuild them.
    Destroy the farms...
    and grass will grow in the streets of the cities.

    Destroy the economy of the blue-collar worker...
    and grass will grow in the executive offices.

    The bill has come due.
    ( R E T I R E D , and glad of it)

    That is something. How sad. Amazing. but sad.
    I see people sending text messages all the time, when they pass me. You can see them look down at their phone, and then look back up.
    That was graphic, but it happened. It would be a good example to teach teens in their driving courses. My teenage neices, and nephews are constantly sending text messages.

    A picture is worth a thousand words.

    He is half the man he used to be I have seen a similar accident before I started driving a truck. Happened in Indiana, Truck missed his turn, and decided to backup on the road (55mph road), a 4 wheeler was changing the radio station when he slammed into the back, tore off the ICC bumber and pushed the tandems all the way forward, needless to say he lost his head, most literally, I saw it AS it happened, and was one of the firsts to go over and see if the guy was alive (along with a few friends), not a pretty site indeed. It is one thing to see pics of these things, quite another to see it in person. Personally gore doesn't really bother me, but my one friend has had nightmares and been disturbed by it still to this day.

    As I sit looking all around,
    Confusion and uncertainty is all I found.
    The answers are there,
    But I do not know where.
    Optimistic and hopeful dreams,
    Are all I have so it seems.
    The future I do not know,
    So all I can do is take it slow.
    But I do know it will work out,
    So I wait and watch without a doubt
