Absolutely amazing how intact the cabin is. Modern car safety is phenomenal.

Back in my day, cars killed their inattentive drunk drivers. Now, they just kill innocent children.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 18 points 21 hours ago

the reason i'm a proponent of the adaptive cruise control systems is that i was very, very nearly in a 30 car pileup on the Grapevine (if you don't know the stretch of road, I-5 north of LA, south of bakersfield. very mountainy and curvy, there's always a fire or an accident when i drive by four times a year). It was foggy and the ACC saw the car ahead of me before I did, let us stop before hitting it and making it a 32 car pileup.

When I was growing up (80s and 90s) that size accident would have multiple fatalities. Only one person had to go to the hospital, and she was pregnant. They wanted to check on the baby. Everyone else just had light bruising/abrasions.

Modern cars seem like a miracle compared to what i started driving.

"Innocent children"? Do you have children? Because mine are assholes whose only purpose is to constantly terrorize me and keep me poor. 🤣

[–] Mpatch@lemmy.world 0 points 5 hours ago

They are too sensitive on here for jokes like that. Even the word truck or BANG scares them.

... So you'd be ok with them getting run over and killed? Lmao

[–] jjlinux@lemmy.zip 2 points 13 hours ago

Depends on the life insurance, I think? 🤔

[–] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think that's the driver at the beginning, sadly sitting against his wreck, but otherwise fine.

I was in a high speed wreck. Two Giant American Trucks filled with 8 adults. The adrenaline/shock was intense, but the only bad thing that happened was I lost my glasses, we were all fine.
