Default Lady Crashes Lexus Into Car Show - Oh Dear

See here http://bangshift.com/blog/Nightmare-...Show-Cars.html

Quote:
The photos below tell the sad tale of two cars that were simply minding their own business, enjoying a beautiful California day, when all hell broke loose. From what we have read, no one was hurt, and in the pile of photos we got from Bob, there were shots of the woman driving the Lexus. We ommitted them from the blog item here because we thought they were unnecessary. The real story here are the two mangled cars and the Lexus which had an air bag that did not deploy, even after caving in the side of a Pontiac.

Scroll down, the photos tell the story…

Bog doesn't "dent" metal does.

It's a pillarless coupe, pre-intrusion bars that got hit side on. Can't expect much more.

Plastic re-forms. I suspect there's a s***load of damage behind that plastic bumper on the Lexus too.
