I WOULDN'T WANT your readers to slip into a false sense of security that this type of crash damage is survivable, as your picture (above) and story may imply (CM 20 November).
I deal with fatal accidents of much less damage some tractor unit crashes end up being fatal with just a broken windscreen. This is. of course, excluding the 'small family car' that the truck has just squashed down to just three foot long... The more we can do to get the message across that inattention kills, the better it will be.
