Default Horrific Corvette crash

http://images.bite.lt/banga/files/cl...237fdba313.jpg

You don't see much blood other than on the back of the semi, but it does look like you can see an arm in the driver area. That, or it's the cushioning of the seat exposed. It's hard to tell. Either way, no one in the Vette could have possibly survived. I just hope the driver was alone, nobody should have to die because of his/her's stupidity.

I just want to know what kind of speed this dingus was doing to cram a car that far underneath a semi trailer. The drop bumper damn near tore through the whole freakin car, so he had to be going incredibly fast.
Also note that it's on a shoulder.

BTW, anyone who attempts to use this as proof of Vettes being unsafe/shitty, gets my seed in their mouth.

Looks like a 50th anniversary C5 at that. Isn't this a repost though? I've seen this photo in a lot of places and I swear this was one of them.

It's pretty damn old, so probably.
