NEWS 10 has a report on one of Central Valley's truck hitting a bridge pillar after blowing a left front steer tire. The article states that the driver kicked out the driver's side window to escape the burning truck along with the passenger. It also says that both of them sustained major injuries. They actually kicked out the passenger side window to escape and are both home and sore but doing fine. Apparently the window was sturdy and at this point the sore foot from kicking the window is the worst injury!
What kind of sports car is that in the belly position?
That was a bad one. Glad to hear the only injury was escape related. That unit in the belly ? It looks like a Delorean ??? But a red paint job ??? Someone correct me, but wern't they all stainless steel kinda colored ? Must be an after the fact custom job.

Shame to see one painted. I like the stainless look

It is always advisable to be on the prescribed speed so that when a front tire blows you are able to steer and control your car. This had happened to me once while driving through the trans-Canada on my Dodge Ram I bought from an Edmonton Dodge dealer. You know how heavy trucks like Rams could accelerate when at top speed however, I was just cruising at 60 mph that time and I was able to stop.
