partly, i understand the point, the situation just seems slightly over stretched and exaggerated. Was he racing the other car? or did he just over-take them? b/c whenever i have to over take someone you better believe im full throttle (within reason), the on-coming traffic lane is not somewhere I want spend time in.

That actually disturbed me. And will ACTUALLY make me speed less. what a good message. I just thought about how my girlfriend could never live on if that happened to me, or vice versa. Being pinned by the dead body of your dearest loved one in th emiddle of a romantic moment, and having your legs crushed at the same time? That actually sickens me to think of. I keep hearing her screaming............

if i was her and saw that i would have fell back and pulled him over the wall while doing so.
it might just be me but i would see that happening and i would obviously be cautious of it coming down the road. but i was just brought up to be aware of my surrounding at all times

Yeah, still.......... that video was in slow motion, and you aren't always in the best state of mind when things are all so sudden.
On a lighter note, the 2nd one about seatbelts didn't seem as strong to me. Still pretty graphic, but all I could think about was how the German speaking paramedic looks like the guy from the Vee Dub commercials. Was it that guy?

I agree because I see it all the time in the field
I was just on a fatality last week where this 17yo kid with his 7yo F cousin was driving way too fast for the roads (45mph and he was going 70+mph) he lost control around a curve and spun out into the other lane striking a 71yo F in a Mazda MPV head on with minimal braking from either car. We had to cut out all 3 patients because there was so much damage they were all trapped. The girl had major lower limb injuries as well as the kid, they were both flown to children's. We started CPR on the elderly woman and got pulses back but she coded again in the helicopter and was pronounced shortly after.
All of that could of been avoided had he not been driving so fast. We've had at least 4 fatalities in the last 6 months in our area due to people driving too fast.
Pictures speak louder than works so here's another one due to someone going too fast, all 3 passengers died either on scene or shortly after. I took us 2.5 hours to cut them out, thats how crushed it was.
Sorry, I'll get off my soap box.
On a side note:
Bala de plata - where do you work?

(boom01) ICU at an LA county hospital. I know that the vid in this thread doesn't involve driving under the influence, but what I'm going to share is relevant. my friend's dad is a retired LAFD fire Cap. When he got his drivers licence (many years back), he pulled him aside and said "I could give you a big speech on not drinking and driving, but I thought I'd show you some of the end results ..." He pulled out a personal scrapbook of accident photos, and lets just say that it has kept him an the straight and narrow to this day ...
