About 45 minutes after he blew our doors off I came over a hill and ahead was a whole mess of flashing lights. Yup he took one out at almost 200kph according to the Mounties on scene. The car went under it barely touching its legs but the bottom of its belly was right at hood height. There was absolutely nothing left of the car above the hood!  The driver and passengers bodies were still sitting in the seats from about the belly buttons down  It was a sobering experience to say the least. |
Yup, I'd sooner go into oncoming traffic than hit a moose.
Well, really, the ditch is where I'd ideally go.
