I haven't seen it, but Dad says the roof is about 6" lower, the front bumper is very close to the firewall, the trunk is all shifted to the side, the passenger side is really bad (not intruding, though).
The car hit the armco on the rear passenger side with enough force to shear a mounting pole right off. The barrier caused the car to "shoot" upright and bounce down the embankment, first end over end and then rolling once before landing on the wheels.
Dad was glued to his seat the entire time thanks to the ETR's and the seatbelts. The seat itself was intact and the seatback did not shear off. He also uses his headrest properly. The police officer was surprised at the footwell and firewall, as the driveline was pushed to the side and back by a big margin. No intrusion in the cabin.
The occupancy sensors work as the passenger side bags didn't fire.
He got glass cuts in his hands while sorting through the interior of the car.
We called some friends in Calgary and they went out to Turner Valley today and took him to their home. I'm happier knowing someone's got an eye on him. There is no place to rent a car, etc. in Turner Valley either.
