3/27: Car crush

It's a bit late to be newsworthy - from last week's crash in northern Atlanta, where about 50 cars piled up. But when you're shipping an image a day and there's a backlog, sometimes things have to wait. This car, I think, got the worst of it - sandwiched between two semis or lorries or tractor-trailers or whatever your local culture calls them.

There's 6 inches separating the two trucks, but remarkably, there is some passenger compartment left. Amazing how crash protection has come such a long way.
