You have to see this. Wow!

Moms View Message Board: General Discussion: Archive May 2006: You have to see this. Wow!

In this amazing video taken from a traffic camera a PT Cruiser blows a red light and then T-bones a Subaru Forrester. The Forrester then rolls over a pedestrian who didn't wait for the walk signal. What's even more amazing is that everyone survived the crash, even the pedestrian. (No mention of the extent of injuries.) Investigators say the massive dent left on the side of the SUV, caused by the impact of the crash, created a hollow space that kept the pedestrian from being crushed to death as the vehicle rolled over him.

Guardian angels did their job that day, especially for the pedestrian! WOW!! What's very scary is that at the beginning of the clip everything looks like a normal day. All that changed in the blink of an eye! Makes the point of how very important it is to be sure all passengers are properly restrained for each and every ride!

HOLY COW! I can understand the Subaru's passengers being survivors, but the pedestrian survived that!!? Man, that guy has to be in a LOT of pain today!
Yes Trina, guardian angels certainly did do their job that day!

Ditto.

Wow. So, 2 people broke the rules and the accident happened. It's amazing that no one got hurt. Guess one should always wait for the light to turn green, as well as wearing seatbelts. Uh, cars should also be paying attention.

By Trina~moderator on Sunday, May 7, 2006 - 12:36 pm:

Dawn, I'm sure people got hurt. It's just amazing everyone survived, especially the pedestrian.

By Tink on Sunday, May 7, 2006 - 01:17 pm:

That is some amazing footage. Truly amazing that everyone survived!

By Dawnk777 on Sunday, May 7, 2006 - 01:20 pm:

Yeah, you're right. I guess I meant no one died. The pedestrian had to have sustained some injuries.

That is just crazy... Everyone is very lucky for sure...

By Bobbie~moderatr on Monday, May 8, 2006 - 09:39 am:

Could you imagine sitting down as a person involved and watching that??? Especially the pedestrian..

By Insaneusmcwife on Tuesday, May 9, 2006 - 09:12 am:

oh wow! I'm glad everyone survived.
