What a LUCKY college kid!!!!!

Accident yesterday north of Deer Lodge on I-90. The driver was appx 22 year old guy heading east to College. He had left central Washington early in the morning. He fell asleep at the wheel and drifted off the shoulder hitting the end ofthe section of guard rail.

The guard rail came through the right headlight, engine compartment, firewall, glove box, passenger seat, rear seat and exited out the driver's side of the rear window. That is 120 feet of guard rail that threaded through the suburban.

No passengers and the driver was not injured.

It was an email that was sent to me about a week ago, and I had to find a way to convert the HTML pics to jpeg so I could upload and post them. Turns out my iphone did that for me Wink

Till daddy saw what he did to the suburban.

you know seriously, the thing that stands out the most to me is that backup in the second pic. I mean how do those people live with traffic like that.

I thought those divots on the side of the road were meant to wake you up?

That's crazy that much of the rail stayed intact and snaked its way through that 'burb.

Lucky guy too that he wasn't hurt.
