There's a reason why all the newer trailers have bumper cross bars very low on the back end, so that it's more like hitting a brick wall then the car getting sheared in half.

Cars are designed to crumple, not be cut in two

The ICC bumper (circled in 3rd pic) helps with low speed impacts but they snap if you hit them hard enough.

It also looks like the tandems (rear wheels are movable) got shoved up, you don't normally drive around with them all the way up like that. Note the lower edge of the trailer you can see the movable range for them.

Looks like the truck was parked and loaded on the shoulder. Who knows what the vette was doing?

I never have. I know my limits and I don't drive to endanger myself or others.

On the Track with proper gear then maybe.

I guess maybe I should clarify , Im talking about life in general , all of us make mistakes we sometimes regret, Im sure you as well have done things in life that you regret. maybe he didnt fuk up at all , although it sure looks like it, Im sure it wasnt intentional.

Oh I see, but in this case I don't think that gentleman has any chance to even regret.

majority of guys that drive Vette's should be in their 40's to 50's, but i had no idea what could of caused this. I feel sorry the family he probably left behind, but thank god they weren't in the car. Much love out there for him and his family

Vetts are not driven/bought because they carry alot of people.......I would place money on him speeding and losing control.

or

I would "assume" he was drinking and zoomed into the truck on the side of the road......drunks do this quite a bit.
