Wrecked RX
I'm not sure what the condition of the passengers/driver are, but this RX looks pretty bad. Cool thing is that it looks like cabin stayed intact, and this thing definitely rolled at least once. This was on the way to Vegas this weekend on the 15...

No I didn't see them...but if you look closely, there are some oxygen tanks near the wreck, so I'm thinking that there had to be survivors. Also since the cabin isn't completely smashed in, I think people could have easily survived (if they were wearing seatbelts)

if all the passengers were alive, they would really stick to Lexus, especially after that experience, but most likely they might have survived, especially with all the technologies Lexus has in all their vehicles, chances of surviving in a wreck is always higher! btw SilverLexo, what's ur lexus?

I don't see any deployed airbags from the steering wheel, dash, seats, or the ceiling...
For a second I thought I was looking at pics of an ambushed vehicle in the Iraqi desert... I thought suvs equipped with VSC are less likely to tip over. Perhaps this RX collided with another vehicle before it rolled.

I have high res pics and they don't show much evidence of cutting. It looks as if the doors were able to open on their own. But check out how that front wheel got ripped clean off, I suspect it had some serious pressure on it during a roll.

Just thought we should see some disturbance in the sand leading to the RX. But I dont see any... I hope those doors didn't fly open when the vehicle rolled.
