Normally don't post this kinda stuff but this is nuts. It's not really graphic just makes you think twice about driving on slick roads...

I could imagine. My stomach is not made for that but I couldn't imagine much is left after that much tonage is screaming down the hwy at 65mph.

My wife works in the "medical field" (basically if you are an organ donor and you stop breathing she is the one that takes usable parts to save other peoples life's). She can't talk about the cases to much but I have heard a few pretty crazy stories.


Makes me appreciate traction control, airbags and seat belts. Not sure they would have helped to much in this case but every little bit helps. Then again just driving to the conditions will help also.
