i heard this on the radio, someone driving in the wrong lane... so stupid

You cant drive on the wrong side of the eastern freeway by accident.

Suicide?

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Wait for the story to come out. It'll be coz of some slut for sure.

The dude was probably drunk as a skunk, or tripping, or mabey both. Two guys died on the M1 between Laverton and Geelong, when they hit an oncoming car driving on the wrong side of the hwy, because the other driver was drunk.
That, or he missed an exit, so turned around on the median strip in the openings, between the fences, where only emergencies vehicles can turn. Does the eastern fwy have them?

the guy was g'd off his head with the one in werribee.

thats fucked.!!! cars aint ment to look like that and i dont think any amount of safety features would have saved them.

That pic of the VE is a credit to holden. Despite the huge forces it looks like it held up pretty well.

im just curious how the black car ended up on its roof...

Pretty easy. The black car was something like a small Barina and never stood a chance with a 200km/h+ impact.

is it just me or does the pic look really photoshopped?

thats what i was just about to ask..

I think it's just zoomed in from fckn ages away.

nah i reckon its been altered, maybe so both cars are in the frame or something... id expect a 200kmh headon impact for the cars to more then a couple of feet apart... could be wrong, its just some of the outlines look a little, well, wrong

I think your right. Spot the white dots in the road in between the 2 cars that dont go anywhere.

There is also a white stripe in the window of the commodore in the middle that doesnt look like it belongs.

I think it just looks photoshopped because of all the fire extinguisher foam all over the car (inc on the A pillar of the commo). Dunno about the random white dots though, could be those little white discs usually stuck to the road that have been dislodged by the impact?

Such a shit way to die too

P.S. I guess those massive stupid A pillars on the VE are good for something, the cabin looks pretty intact to me. Either that or the accident could have been avoided if it had standard size pillars, enabling the driver to see the oncoming car...

lol, they are huge a pillars all right... car might be intact but someone still died so i guess theyre not that good...

Photoshoped for sure! i get off on the chandler highway exit everymorning mon-fri and enter on it aswell to go home, and never noticed random white dots on the road + theres is no way the cars would end up that close after 200k impact.

But yeh suck to go out like that..if i ever get suicidal im gonna bomb some shit or shoot up a bank.

Why not. Thats the whole point of crumple zones. They absorb the majority of the impact so the cars aren't just going to "bounce" apart.

Looks photoshoped but you never know.

Well it came out that the commodore was going wrong way was tryiung to kill themself.
Low act considering the person in the other vehicle was killed too.

a innocent victim.

I dont know but i think schmee company atteneded this accident he would be the best to askl

I'm moderately sure that crumple zones are designed for sub-60km/h impacts, not 200km/h smashes. I agree with that Sterling kunt.

Fucked crash either way.

i thought it was a chick in the VE who was off her dial and crashed?
either way you cant win, they put in all those green bollards and cable to stop people crossing onto the otherside of the road, driving flat out into the bridge pillars and light posts which you's think would put a stop to most of it but then you just get idiots who will either do a u bolt or come flat out down the on ramp into the first car!
No remorse for the commodore driver what so ever, no matter what they were going through, to take your own life is one thing to take someone with you is just plan selfish.

Evidence? Link?

Just tell us which brothers' mates' sisters' boyfriends' neighbour you heard this from.

I have seen/worked on a 200kmph+ smash where both cars were less than 3 meters from each other.

1 dead 1 walked away and the other had a steering column bolt through his knee.

It was acctually his cousins' brothers' mates' sisters' boyfriends' neighbour he heard this from

those white dots could be paint for evidence aswell

but either way its fucked up

The front rim on the VE looks placed there, doesnt look right where that peice of front guard touches the tyre... either way its a shocker of a smash.

just to clarify no I didnt attend this nor did anyone from the company I work for...

you guys would be surprised what ends up where in a high kph smash
