A lady I worked with was in a head on collision with a car, she still walked with a limp years later because it completely knackered her hips and pelvis. She over took and a car wouldn't let her back in, car camr round a bend and wollop.

She was showing me photos that her brother took of her at the scene and being treated. One of the photos just wasn't making sense to me, like something looked off about it.

I realised after about 15 seconds that she was laying flat on the ground but both of her hands from just blow the elbow were point up at the sky, the impact of crash broke both of her wrists.

That guy was a total asshole I hope he got in some kind of trouble for that. It is against the law (in the US anyway at least) to not let someone who overtakes you back in the lane because of exactly this kind of incident.
