Well my father owns a junkyard so over the years I've gotten to see
the remains of quite a few objects previously known as automobiles.
But, one sticks in my mind as being the worst. About 15 years ago
a Honda Civic hit a toll island going down I-44 here in Virginia Beach.
Police figure it was going about 80mph and never hit the brakes,
there were no skid marks. I remember looking at the remains, the
car literally broke up on impact into about 4 or 5 major peices.
It certainly didn't look much like a car anymore. It was just a
few crumpled yellow peices of steel. Bloodstains, torn clothing,
and a few shoes were in what was left of the interior. There
were 4 occupants, all killed on impact of course.
