SO this was posted on one of my G Face Book Groups. 

Speed + G + NO seat belt = A really bad day.

They came from the G or the Lada?

Huge impact, but then 2.8T of G @ 90 miles per hour  and the Lada in other direction - let's say 60 mph and 1.2T would have a combined impact energy of almost 2 million ft-lbs surprise

Seatbelt or not; the physics of the situation never going to be a good outcoume, but in general mass is your friend - a good reminder though Spider!

Hi all

Different angle. The G is definately long wheelbase as per Spider comment.

Awful for him, but looks like a Lada gets shunted into him causing him to lose control.. This shot is from the other lane and is pretty clear.

He is tanking along though.
