The damage that our vehicles can do to someone was shown to me last Thursday. A 24 yr old female in my apartment complex decided to do 50mph through our parking lot when it was wet. her 2900lbs jetta impacted my PARKED F-250 on the front passenger side and stopped. She hit at 50 (no skid mark, nothing) and stopped inside of 5 feet. That's as far as she could push my rig. She broke both of her legs, mangled her face in the Air Bag (they don't work as intended without your seatbelt) and just mashed her all up. I can only imagine if my vehicle had been the one moving. Oh and her Jetta? Barely recognizable.
