the result of careless driving during rush hour, 4 vehicles damaged, lots of people having their day ruined. Stop following so closely in freeway exit ramp merges

The F150 Lightning crashed into the green mini suv

the gray suv was hit from behind and lost it's rear fascia and the gold suv with the mashed rear bumper was hit by the silver one which now has a mashed hood

If you are following someone in slow rush hour traffic, stay at least far enough behind them to see the bottom of their rear tires

Glacier Girl, a P-38 of the "Lost Squadron" found 200 plus feet below the ice in Greenland

the Lost Squadron - two World War II Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress bombers and six Lockheed P-38 Lightnings.

The squadron was forced to land on the Greenland ice cap on July 15, 1942 after hours of flying in bad weather and running low on fuel. Epps' adventure began as a lark when he was admiring a customer's new Learjet and the customer responded, "What I really want is a P-38". Epps certainly knew where six P-38 Lightnings were located so he joined forces with a friend and two airline pilots who already had the search and salvage rights from the Danish government.

The following story, originally published in the January 1993 issue of Air & Space/ Smithsonian,recounts adventures during the second leg of the journey, a 22-year slog through recovery and restoration that couldn’t have been completed without the ingenuity, stamina, and fortune of a Roy Shoffner, a Kentucky businessman, named the P-38 “Glacier Girl” and began to plan the completion of its mission.

Fifty years later, in 1992, the plane was brought to the surface by members of the Greenland Expedition Society after years of searching and excavation. The aircraft was eventually transported to Middlesboro, Kentucky, where it was restored to flying condition. The excavation of Glacier Girl was documented in an episode of The History Channel's "Mega Movers" series, titled "Extreme Aircraft Recovery".

On 22 June 2007 Glacier Girl departed Teterboro Airport, New Jersey in an attempt to fly across the Atlantic Ocean to Duxford, England to complete the flight it had begun sixty-five years earlier. On 28 June, however, a coolant leak in the #2 (right) engine grounded the plane in Goose Bay, Labrador.

On July 22 2007 repairs were completed in Labrador, which included installation of two re-manufactured Allison engines. Glacier Girl returned to the U.S. on July 23, and can now be seen at air shows in the USA.

In 2007 Glacier Girl was sold to Lewis Energy's CEO, Rodney Lewis.

on the headstone of many an outlaw it is written "Died of lead poisoning". These wrecks died, and then were "shot the hell up"

the most authentic appearing diorama I've seen in a long time

the plane is a Mitsubishi from WW2. The info card didn't mention where it was found (that I can remember) or how they brought it to the museum

wrapped A ROUND a telephone pole

but below, the "Rocket Transport" Mack truck slammed the Chevy into the pole, and nearly broke the pole off it's foundation

this artist is a moron. He burned up his Ferrari 355 spider to display it's wrecked carcass. Idiot

Luckiest guy you'll ever see, he ought to go buy a lotto ticket, and get tested for super powers

found on http://parkoffka.ru of course, they find GREAT STUFF! 

Bumpers need extra protection in some cases nowadays, due to things like expensive back up sensors and fewer insured motorists along the Mexico border

Here in San Diego, being in a collision caused by an insured car owner is known as winning the lotto. That's how rare it is to have the other person be insured, and not a hit and run that will never be found by the cops

I learned about it, and got the above photo from Autowriters.com monthly newsletter this photo taken in front of the Castle of Carovigno (Castelo Dentice di Frasso) in the province of Brindisi, in the region of Puglia, Italy
Jeff Mohr is happy to pass along this photo from over seas for his Superbumper: "We have lots of employees getting rear ended on a regular basis. I am putting them on all our office vehicles. The 4” model on my personal vehicle has been “bumped” numerous times with no damage (to my vehicle at least)," Thad Osterhout, American Embassy, Dakar, Senegal, Africa. 

Stupid people driving recklessly fast cause traffic collisions

Be careful, be smart, don't back out of a parking spot. Back into it, and drive out of it to be able to see traffic and prevent collisions like this one

there is an email going around with photos of wrecked 1920's and 30's cars, here are the more impressive photos

 above is a late 1910's Dodge I think... there was a name for the style... but I can't remember it

 worlds strongest front tire and steering parts!

 above, a kid went joyriding and trashed the car in an accident

 above and below are Mack trucks, in the first version of the company symbol

If the photos make you glad you have power steering, power brakes, airbags, and saftey glass windshield... than you echo my sentiment

All the photos were taken by a Boston news photographer, and are now in the Boston Library
