    I watched that this morning. Full golf clap is warranted.

    I've seen a number of Swift trucks with unpainted hoods, just the black looking gel coat. They don't even attempt to make them look right anymore after they are wrecked.

    There's a site on Facebook called "Best in Crash ".
    That's why I don't even post them here anymore, they have sooooooo many it's mind boggling.
     
    Big Don and Lepton1 Thank this.

    3/4 clap for the videographer and all the witnesses who didn't run and jump and try to stop the driver, instead stood by to watch the trainwreck.

    There's no stopping what can't be stopped.
    If it wasn't today, it would have been someplace else tomorrow.

    True. But the guy taking the video said it was the SECOND time that driver hit that same tree. Apparently he hit it on the way into the dock. So they were ready to roll the film and..."Action!"...on his way out.
