That's my brother's Chevy 2500 diesel. He walked away from this wreck. Essentially a Kia was traveling north in the southbound lanes, side swiped a F150, then the lifted Bronco in front of my brother hit it and the Bronco started rolling. My brother t-***** the Bronco as it was rolling in front of him at 65mph. Bronco guy lived (was pinned in and heard he had something amputated), Kia driver was killed, and my brother walked away. Airbags deployed, but the entire interior was 100% intact and unmoved otherwise, which is pretty incredible.

After hearing about this, I got pulled over 45 mins later and given two tickets for my HIDs (in projectors at that) and now the wife will make me change back to halogen (which will still technically be illegal b/c the projectors aren't stock). Gotta love VA. Fix-it ticket at least anyway.

Glad your brother is ok....sucks about the ticket

Thanks, luckily he decided to drive his truck instead of his Malibu or vette

Crazy. Glad he's ok.



Just go ahead and tell your wife you need a retrofit then...

I would, but that's illegal as well. My fogs are projectors that i put in and those were also ticketed

Glad to hear everybody made it out ok.

I wish I had a pic from work. This guy had a Chevrolet 3500 and was towing a huge tractor. For whatever reason he hit a tree and the weight from the tractor shortened the whole truck in half. The guy ended up walking away from the accident once they were able to get him out.

Glad your brother is well. Truck looks really good actually. Without seeing it completely in person, it looks like a somewhat easy fix.

WOW!! I am glad that your brother walked away from that!!

Thanks guys, he's still waiting to hear if they're totaling it and how much he'll get.
