Re: Bad news story but with people unhurt

The SVX gave it's life to protect another's. That is truely heroic. I have never seen such brave galantry.

The SVX never ceases to amaze me.

It's like they have a soul.

They are strong I will give you that . Who cares how much damage there was to the stupid VAN. So I have seen cars repaired that were in worse shape than that.

God just loves these cars so much that he protects everyone in them an extra amount, so they'll go and buy another. plus, God has a pearly. everyone just thinks they're gates.

Re: Bad news story but with people unhurt

Anyone know how fast the van was going? I am just curious because that door took a hard hit it looks like.
