    Hi All,

    I seem to remember Jack's most horrendous injuries were from the paint cans that flew foward from the cargo area. That could happen to anybody with any sized vehicle. At least until we have mandatory helmet laws in cars.

    You note the frame of the Prius is intact.

    Not as bad as I would think considering it was hit by such a big truck! Wow!

    Terrible accident. This is one reason why I always keep an eye on oncoming traffic. There is almost no time to react, if a car is headed in front of you. Be safe out there and keep your belts buckled up.

    I also hope and pray that both drivers recover from their injuries.
