Haha i was turning right through an intersection when a 4WD (Patrol) went hammering through a red light at about 80k's that was the result, wasn't happy.

ended up with a fractured neck, the worst was my mate in the passenger seat, he ended up with brain hemorages all his ribs were broken, had a ruptured spleen and a punctured lung. He ended up sepending 2 weeks in intensive care, and i got booked 4 it!!!

Looks like the pole missed the drivers door by inches. Dude you were lucky......very lucky youweren't killed 10 times over.

I am glad you lived to tell the tale, and I hope that at least one person on here see's this and potentially saves their own life.

Looks like your fuel tank just dropped out. Lucky it didn't split and ignite.

Now.......was it a clubby van or a roundy?

clubby Anton, can tell by the edge of the bonnet sitting up...

bastard 4wd's - think they own the roads... that is an incredibly lucky escape

looks like the front wheels are OK - front left suspension woulda been OK...
