Ever had a truck driveshaft fly into your W124?!? Look!
Check out this video that hit CNN today, some guy in MA driving down the freeway behind a truck got a u-joint + part of the driveshaft in his face through the window of his W124 after the shaft blew apart! :eek:

Holy Crap.
|
That guy needs to buy some lottery tickets.:eek:
He seems like a really calm person. |
I imagine it was making a heckuva noise before it came apart.
|
I bet they will find the truck was poorly maintained....
I hope he repairs and keeps driving his "lucky" car... :D All it needs is: Windshield....dash....and a good detailing. :D |
daamn. . someone hasn't been maintaining their truck. . dude. . .
|
I wanna say the MB kept him alive, but this was pure luck.
|
Whoa!
|
Wow!
Lots of lawsuit potential their! |
I bet he gets a bulletproof windshield.
|
Must be one of those unsafe trucks visiting here from the Great White North that was let in by NAFTA......lots of debate in the West to what extent our Southern neighbors should be allowed access.
That wasnt much damage......I got hit by a semi-truck spare tire that came out from under a trailer at 65mph....that did do some damage. |
