Said her phone rang and she reached over to get it. I could see that the car went into the ditch and I am guessing she hit the gas rather than the brake. Right front hit a 24" concrete and metal culvert.

Right front tire pushed back far enough that it bent the passenger side floor boards. Unibody is badly buckled at the B pillars (can see the car is visibly bent downward in the middle). Right rear quarter panel has scape marks from the top of the wheel well up the C pillar.

Had to be one helluva ride.

She had called 911 and was on the phone with her daughter when I got to her

Neighbor and I drug the car into a field across from her house with his tractor. Once I know she is OK, I may post a pic or two

Yea I was telling my wife that most of these banquets are a crock. They are just a business

Well they certainly are a business to make money and the whole idea of the banquets is to raise money to help elk habitat, relocation efforts and conservation projects. Their efforts are doing a great job for elk. They are usually the main player in getting elk re-established back into some of their historical range. What pissed off a lot of hunters back in the 90s was their complete lack of aknowledgement of who was supporting them. That seems to have changed now and that is a good thing.

Follow up. Word from hospital is that she has a "couple" of broken ribs and a fractured sternum. Hope this is not the beginning is a downward spiral for her

78. Mrs. Pat Kelly.

Thanks

78, That will set her back in recovery. All the air bags go off? That is a life saver, I had 12 go off in my incident, they will injure you, but a lot better than without. Best wishes Mrs. Kelly

Older Camry with front air bags only. Both deployed.

In this case, I think seat belts would have sufficed, but yeah, the bags both injured her and may have limited injuries

Tough day. Worried about neighbor. The community here is very tight knit and I somehow managed to fall into this community. First time in almost 20 years that I have a sense of place and I know my neighbors by name,....
