The whole event ended seconds later with the vehicle stopping next to a telephone pole.....well almost! I was walking the next day with a 13" rod in my femur and two 8' plates and 14 screws on my left arm. The broken pelvis was painful but hell I was walking! I never left the driver seat or blacked out. It was 1.5 hours before the paramedics were able to cut power and safely remove me from the car for helicopter transport! I am thankful for seat belts and a well built Porsche! I do believe in God!"

I found the pics here:

booboo
