I recenlty witnessed an insane Car accident here.
I was traveling on Il. I-57 at 7Am on a Sunday AM.It was bright & clear with Sunshine.
I was on a Double Southbound lane with a grassy median seperating the two Northbound lanes.
Maybe 5 cars including me were visible in the southbound lanes.
As I looked ahead in the oncoming corner bend,I saw a Moron traveling at me Northbound in the Southbound lanes at around 100MPH.
He was in my left lane,I in the right lane.I was stunned,& tried to warn the cars behind me in both lanes to get out of the way by swirving & flashing my brake lights...no luck.
This Moron,probably still drunk from the night before & going home from a party,most likely thinking he was on a North-South 2 lane road,flew by me and moments later slammed Head on into two cars behind me following eachother in the left lane.All I saw was Cars jump up into the air,& a body fly out of one vehicle along with a dog,from my rear view mirror.
I pulled over to give a statement once the police arrived.
Two people died & one dog,but the Drunk Driver was conscious & cuffed once his bleeding stopped.

Wow, i would imagine that most of these accidents involved a fatality.

I too watched a similar situation one night last year. I was driving my friends Freightliner Cabriolet down a 2 lane south bound highway and 2 lane north bound. This guy at about 1:30am comes out and proceeds south in the north bound lane. Cars were swerving out of his way and I was following next to him blasting the airhorns to get his attention. Finally after about a mile of this he cut through and started down the correct lane. We were heading into town at a high rate of speed. Luckily we passed a Police officer shooting radar. I backed off as the officer proceeded after him. The fellow swerved around 2 cars and spun around 180 degrees hitting a young lady waiting to turn at the intersection. I was so ANGRY that I stopped the truck and ran past the officer to scream at the DRUNK driver. Luckily I knew the officer and he called me off the a$@hole. I wanted to make sure the officer knew of why I was chasing him. The young lady was ONLY shook up, no real damage (Thank God). That was a night I will never forget.

Someone was telling me the other day about one sent to them where a woman was driving a SUV and she hit a Moose.It came through the front windshield narrowly missed the driver seat and the head of the Moose was sticking out the back of the SUV.Luckily she was by herself he said.Said she did not get hurt but had to clean a lot of blood off of her that came from the Moose.Destroyed the SUV.Here in Texas we have a Rod Run every year out of New Braunfels Texas and goe to Terlingua,they ususlly have a policeman escort them on a motorcycle.Well the Deer are bad and many people over the years have hit deer and damaged there cars.Well last year the policeman hit a 10 point buck on his Harley and the horns punctured him and he had to be flown by lifeflight to a Hospital in San Antonio Texas.Another guy we knew had a Radical 32 Ford and he hit a deer at about 50 mph and did $22,000.00 dollars of damage to his 32 Ford.They now have a guy with a Blown Willys that leads the thing and the noise from the blower supposedly scares the deer away!I don't do that run anymore because of the deer.Hell we even had them come up in our camp scrounging for food at night.Between the Deer and Racoons we did not get much to eat!

Check out a book called "Vintage Car Wrecks" by Rusty Herlocher. It will bring back some bad memories for old guys like me. The book has about 60 pages of demolished musclecars, including one 67' Stingray identifiable only by the dash and the steering wheel. People have been doing stupid things for a long time.

Scary pics. My dad had a couple of friends who wrecked their '66 Singray so bad that they both ended up still sitting in their seats on the ground with pieces of Vette all around them. They were lucky with only minor cuts and bruises.

Kinda' like Jan Berry of "Jan and Dean" fame. He had a '66 Vette and he ran it under a parked truck at about 90 mph. Should have killed him but he survived in a somewhat vegitated state. The Corvette was completely demolished. The homeowner who lived at the accident site said it sounded like a large explosion when Berry's Vette impacted the parked truck. Just think of what cops have to deal with when they arrive on such gruesome scenes.

Just heard a radio announcer say this the other day. He used to be a State Trooper and he did his own research on head-on crashes on four lane highways. The majority of the time it occurs in the left lane, which would be the slow lane (right lane) for the driver going the wrong way. Drunk drivers usually stay in that lane.
The trooper/announcer always told people to stay in the right lane unless passing because of this reason. One night he was riding in the left lane (fast lane) and decided to take his own advice, moves over to the right lane and moments later here comes a drunk in the left lane.

Here's for staying in the right lane!!
