Wow that front cabin area looks decent after an impact like that. Looks like an IS300

Yeah, if he had a passenger in the back, he'd turn into a mashed potato

I think that was an IS300 (I owned one myself for 5 years). Shows you how well that car was built..........and the protection modern crumple-zone engineering gives you. And, of course, the gas tank could have gone up....but it didn't. I agree, though, it was a good thing there were no kids in the back.

Now.....to deal with that a** hole talking on the phone at 80 MPH and not paying attention................. He or she probably deserves a stiff sentence.

I-405 freeway.. one of the most congested freeway in southern California. No doubt you'll have a large number of people on their phones. People going 60mph in the fast lane and 80 on the slow lane. I'm glad I no longer commute on that freeway.
