Yikes on that link. We all just never want that to happen. Good thing everyone so far has walked away. I saw a picture around here somewhere of one over a small embankment too.

Here are my crash pics. Flipped end over end once and rolled twice. the A-pillar had me pinned in the drivers seat and had to be cut away. The car landed right side up and the passenger walked away and got help. Only injuries were minor cuts and bruises. These pics were taken at a storage yard.
