OMG! Thats a pretty major fire. How on earth did it happen to a reliable Toyota/Lexus? The occupants were real lucky it seems to have realised what was happening in time to escape.
On the expressway in January. Happened 3 minutes before I crossed it. The guys hit the spare wheel mount and dislodged the entire mounting !!! The occupants just walked out from the car without
any injuries. The car was a complete wreck.
Gosh.... the skoda's front is completely ripped. Is that lump ahead, the engine?
Man i am impressed, such a huge shunt and the driver's door and front pillars are still intact.
Did it hit the spare wheel mount of the truck in picture?? Does it carry so much weight to do this to skoda??

Yes it hit the spare wheel mount of the truck in picture and it
dislodged the complete assembly which is welded onto the chasis.

The occupants were slightly frightened and that was it. Everyone was as safe as they would be when the walked inside the car!
Saw this Accent on holi. Got this pic from a friend.
This is what happened in Delhi Yesterday. Supposedly drunk and high speed driving. Doing over 90kmph in city road and rammed into a mini bus. Unfortunately 3 people died.

90 KMPH in the city is asking for trouble, drunk driving on top of that is perfect recipe for disaster. It would be impossible for front seat occupants to survive in such a terrible crash. What is the car model, looks like one of the tall boys. Whatever caused it, may their souls rest in peace.
