That really makes you think.
Even though you know it's coming somewhere in the video there is nothing you could do to avoid that!
If that was a Seven it would all be over

I was ducking my head on the couch then to try and miss it. I suspect if it hadn't have been a larger van type vehicle that the driver was in
she maybe wouldn't have made it.
That's if it was a woman mind. It could very understandably have been a man screaming like that

It's the blood curdling scream that is the creepiest, or is it tyre squeal? Just before impact.

Something similar once happened to me,at night
on a dark stretch of motorway.
The other car was already sliding on its roof when it hit the crash barrier, luckily i saw the sparks coming and instinctively swerved into the inside
lane. It jumped the barrier behind me.
Big Brown Trouser moment.

As (a bit) above, if that was this country and therefore a clio/saxo etc, I reckon it would have been game over...

A few years ago I came across the aftermath of something similar on the M25. A lorry had jacknifed and then fallen onto its side....it happened on a
curved stretch of the M25 (anti-clockwise) and the lorry went through the central reservation and then across all three lanes of the the other
carriageway.
Total carnage....it was Sunday morning and a group of 8-10 bikers where out for a run, at least 5 of them hit the lorry as it slid across the
carriageway into their lanes. I counted 12 cars and 5 or 7 bikes buried into the side of the lorry. I believe there where 3 or 4 fatalities.
The cause (as I found out afterwards) was 2 scrotes in a old BMW decided to exit the motorway at the very last minute and swept from lane 3 into the
slip road right in front of the Artic who slammed on his brakes. Apparently the Police got the driver of the BMW and charged him with causing death
by dangerous driving.
It was stomach churning watching the Emergency Services trying to get people out of the various vehicles and seeing some the Bikers sitting on the
motorway in tears looking at their mates covered in black plastic. There was a guy (40 something) in leathers hopping down the hard shoulder back the
the rest of his mates while holding his mobile to his ear, telling his wife he was OK but his mates where dead...I will never forget that.

Thats terrible, i bet its one of those moment that the driver will be able to run through slowmo in his head and remember it coming but can't do
anything about it.
As said above, we were expecting a crash and still didnt see it till last minute...

I won't repeat my actual words, but let's just say they rhyme with clucking bell. That's just nasty.
If disfunction is a function, then I must be some kind of genius.
