I'll
vouch for that. As I came up to a traffic jam on the M40 motorway in the
UK, all three lanes were at a standstill... I was in lane three (the
"fast" lane as it's commonly known), and the guy behind me wasn't paying
attention. I saw him getting closer - it was almost as if it was in slow
motion!
I
braced myself, and he went into the back of me. He'd noticed I'd stopped
in time to at least try applying the brakes, but he must have hit my
rear end at about 30-40 mph. My airbags didn't go off, and I really didn't
feel that much of an impact, but it wrote off his car (A Vauxhall Corsa), and
caused about £250 of damage to my bumper.
No
word of a lie, it looked like someone had got their shoe and tried to scrape
some dirt off it, on my bumper. Amazing! His car was practically folded
upto the windscreen.
Luckily, no serious injuries, but he had a difficult time getting
home.
I've
never felt safer.

Thank goodness he was driving a nice,
sturdy Mercedes or that would have been the end of him.
