No doubt. But my point is that when the drunk gets on the freeway going the wrong way (ie up the off ramp) they tend to drive as far right as possible to be law abiding citizens. Hence, as wrong way drivers they end up in the fast lane.
As to the crumple zones etc, the limo looks pretty intact after the driver's seat. The front end is gone, completely, and the truck only looks done in to the front axle level. Any chop of the limo shouldn't have affected (WAG) the crumple characteristics of the engine compartment. Hence, my surprise.
Too bad he won't get sequential terms rather than concurrent.
