Gives new meaning to the saying "drives as if it's on rails"

Good thing they both survived. Hopefully they learned their lesson.

OMG. The driver and passenger are very lucky to live. I saw that blood on the rail and I thought it went straight through the driver's body. Anyway, drive safely everybody!

I think a lot more than a well built car saved them, pure luck, and nothing more than a lot of luck saved the passenger and driver

I remember reading about that awhile ago. It was some guy and his friend running from a cop for speeding. They lost control and hit the guard rail at 100 mph.

Well there is areas in the railing that are bolted together. The workers that put them together are suspose to check them ever so often to make sure that everything is still holding together. This is what happens when the rails are not inspected like they are suspose to be. The old bolts fail causing the railing to come apart. And hitting the rail at 100 mph would easily cause the rail to come apart and cut through the car. Its like a hot knife cutting through butter. I remember reading that the car rode on the rail for about 140 ft. The guy was lucky he only got his arm cut. Most people that happens too end up getting cut in half or have the rail go through them.
