I was there just after it happened - after the police, before the fire dept. I was glad I didn't drive by 5 minutes earlier.

What is amazing, is that the BMW sheared all those cables. The driver must have gotten a real run at it. One of those time you wish you didn't have auto AWD! I hope he got the rental insurance on the BMW!

The owner of the Jag was near tears when the tow truck was yanking the BMW off the Jag. She handed the keys over and said "I don't ever want to see it again, just make it go away".

What was that, an X5? Kinda like what The Great Santini said about the F4 Phantom: Given enough thrust, even a brick will fly.

Forget the online customer satisfaction survey. Next time your rental car has cigarette butts, a bad alignment, an no satellite radio, THIS is how you tell them you weren't satisfied.
