I haven't found details yet on exactly what happened but it appears there was an accident and a Renault Clio ended up sideways on the highway. The semi driver evidently doesn't know his hood ornament is a 2800 pound car. Video

It's made it to the Today show "next" according to Lester.

I find it totally believable. A friend of mine was killed that way. She and her husband (another friend) decided to change drivers on the shoulder of I-75. He was out of the car walking around to the passenger side, she was inside scooting between the seats. The semi truck hit them at about 60 mph it is estimated. The driver didn't realize he had a bumper made out of a Honda Accord for 2 miles! She died about 18 months later.

Thanks. That just proves what everyone here knows already, the Michigan GRM'rs are the best ones.

No, I'm NOT a post whore. The term "post" offends me.

One more topic posted on this video and I'll start to think Ken Block was either behind the wheel of the Clio or the truck.
