Why You Never, Ever Pass A Truck Before Your Exit

Carscoops:
Woman Hits Truck, Gets Struck by 2nd Truck, Yet Makes it Out Alive!

It’s hard to believe just by watching the dashcam footage, but the young lady driving the Ford Focus survived this horrific accident that occurred in Belgium.

It all happened on August 13 when Jasmien Claeys, 25, attempted to speed across two lanes and enter the exit, but little did she know that there was a traffic jam up ahead.

She crashed full force into a stationary truck, and if that wasn't enough, the Focus was hit by the dashcam lorry coming from behind.

Against all odds, the woman was injured, but alive. She broke her top two vertebrae and shattered her hand, while she was also in a coma, but is now "recovering exceptionally well", according to an interview that she gave to Belgian news station HLN this past Sunday.

Brutal.
Great lesson though...I think I'll try to learn from OTHER people's mistakes on this one.
OUCH! That's not going to buff out.

I think the truly oddest part about this, if you look close, you can actually see things like a backpack / purse fly out of the car just after the second hit.
