Looks like an awesome cayenne commercial to me.

On another note, epic fail goes out to the Dallas DOT for those K rails. They are supposed to prevent that EXACT scenario, which means, they are not tall enough.

The Sentra driver having a siezure or something? How the hell do you have a giant semi blotting out the sun to your left and then plunge your car into its front wheel?

And maybe the semi driver jerks the wheel after the surprise contact but I would have guessed the semi just runs over the Sentra like it is not there (as in the movies) and not get carried across a lane and over the guardrail by a dinky little car. Go figure.

And by the way this has maybe been posted before but I got and email about texting while driving. I don't own a cell so I don't text but if you have not seen it it is photos from an accident of someone who was texting.

SERIOUS WARNING, it is gruesome. The sixth photo down is a pair of legs and part of a spine. That image stuck in my head all day.

Do not visit the link if squeamish.
