Default RS6 insane crash

Peep this. My dad is a accident re-constructionist/collision expert for oregon state police, and someone sent him these pics of an RS6 crash from across the big blue river. i dont know the details or anything, he just showed me these pics a few minutes ago so i figured i'd share them with ya'll, if you have already seen them somewhere else, sorry.

The driver was dam lucky, he is the one standing in the gray stripped shirt in the first pic.

He was one lucky ***** cause the PDOF (principle direction of force) appears to have been near the front corner of the vehicle, then passed at an angle along side the driver, leaving him untouched in his drivers seat.

oh for sure it's ridiculous that the guy walked away unharmed, it makes me believe Karma exists and that this guy had mass amounts of it.


I mean I usually don't mind a repost and truthfully this hasn't been reposted for a while so I'm fine with seeing it again. Not to step on your toes or anything.


although it seems like you could shed some interesting light on it from the fact your dad analysis this stuff for a living, ususally the reposters just have this "OMG guys look how awesome AUdi is because it saved this guys life when he nailed a tree going insanley fast"

Just wasn't his time to go yet......I've been in 2 near death accidents and if you look at the pics the drivers compartment is the only untouched area of the car !!! Really, what are the odds of that ??? If he was with anyone but himself he'd be facing charges and they would all be dead......
