I saw this on the news this morning. Absolutely amazing that he survived. Click the video link, the bus had a camera like blackbox installed that videotaped collision. Also, more pictures on VW Vortex.

I saw that news report. Driver came out w/a neck injury, only...amazing.

The owner of DriveCam was interviewed.
As I recall, $1,200 to buy their simple package or $60/mo. lease.

Wow :eek:

The guy works at an Audi dealership!

I doubt he'll have any trouble convincing buyers the cars are safe ever again. Any doubts? "Let me show you these pictures from my accident.."

Lucky, lucky.

Happened right down the road from me.

Roads around here, especially the LIE suck.

The right and center lanes are so grooved from truck traffic it's scary.

Almost impossible to drive the Porsche in those lanes.

Switching lanes is like getting help from a slingshot,

Not surprised about this at all.

So, any reports on what made the semi veer so sharply?

The video stated it was overloaded by 16, 000 pounds plus bad tires.

Trucks tires were also bad
