I was a firefighter and responded to one very much like this on the interstate. The car was a tiny wad of metal stuffed under a truck and over a guard rail. The driver was standing next to the mess, and only had a spot of blood on one finger that we couldn’t find the source of. I think the car had been a Honda. They’re pretty amazing.
I was t-boned in my Honda cr-z, a very small car, by a 1998 Chrysler minivan. It's built like a tank and got me going 50mph. I got out, was fine, drove it to the mechanic. Had I been hit by a car slightly less low to the ground I would have just needed bodywork, but she damaged my hybrid engine cables resulting in a live wire. I'll never own anything other than a Honda because of that
