An Audi rests

I don’t know who the gentleman is in the picture. I also do not know how the crash occured. But I do know that that is one really good looking car and extremely tragic crash. The repair bills are not going to be funny and if the pictured man is crying…..well i wouldn’t blame him. [...]

Cars on the walk

You’d think it was safe to take a walk on the sidewalk. You’d be thinking wrong. It’s hard to figure out how this accident happened. Both cars should clearly not be driving on the sidewalk. Unless of course the force of the accident tossed them there. I believe the drivers are still stunned. Bookmark on [...]

Smash at intersection

Intersections are dangerous places. With cars coming from four different directions it is important to always slow down when approaching the intersection. Blindly racing on will only lead you to all sorts of unpleasant results–a fact this driver so painfully discovered. The picture was taken minutes after the crash and so the photographer was unable [...]

Crash at the intersection

A man lying on the floor does not bode well for the results of this accident. Even worse it appears like something has been covered on the floor with sand. The accident looks like it was the result of a run in at the intersection. The second car appears to have had its hood completely [...]

Wrecked ride

It looks like the SUV was involved in an accident that had it rolling into a somersault. With the windows badly shattered the occupants of the car must have been at least bruised by flying glass. Its hard to make out the condition of the driver seat or front end but hopefully the brunt of [...]

Mid city flip crash

That’s one way to park a car I guess. I wonder–Did the car flip over the divider to land on this side of the road or did it run into the center before flipping? The faint skid marks seem to suggest the latter. I do hope the driver was okay though. Seat belts and air [...]

Midtown pile up

Road rage and cars end up wrapped around a pole. Culled from  Tahir, the following shows how easily things can go from bad to worse to just plain absurd. From the pictured cars, it looks very likely that there were sever injuries.  The car was literally ripped into two with the force of the impact. [...]

Stop?

What does it take to stop a moving car? Ideally most people would say the brakes and a sign yelling stop. But sometimes it takes more than a sign with the word “Stop” to put a halt to our mad dash on the street. Sometimes, it takes a curb, a water hydrant and the sign [...]

Car plows into pole

A busy day ends with an accident along the highway. It looks like there are still occupants in the car. Hopefully they are not to injured. There was no word on what caused the accident but given the state of the road and the obvious presence of snow a slide seems to be the most obvious reason. [...]

180 and smash

There is something tragic about the picture. Lying in the open with it’s unshielded areas exposed to the world.  The death of yet another vehicle in more ways than one. There is no report on how this occurred or–even more importantly–no news on what the fate of the driver (or possible occupants) is. We can only [...]
