This guy was texting and didn't see this rig taking a right turn. The road is ONE lane and the truck was hugging the left side of the lane to make a wide right turn. This guy (not paying any attention to what was really going on) thought the truck was going left. As you can see, the end result was not good.

The kicker is the driver of the car was.......90 years old!!!!!

the one thing you take away from a major
accident besides your life ..... that is

is how quickly you can go
from being a driver of the vehicle

to a passenger in the vehicle that
is totally out of your control

where forces such as spinning ,flipping
end over end or rolling the vehicle

and then being EJECTED thru a window

can take place .........in mere seconds

they are like shots of still photography actually
time slows down and everything happens in very slow motion

or seems like it anyways .....
