At almost exactly 3am on a very nice August night, a drunk guy hit my sister Madeline's car -a huge white car- that was parked in front of our sorority house (picture 1). in an attempt to flee the scene, the driver backed up and floored the gas, unfortunately, he slammed right into the car parked behind the white one. That car is, was, a blue dent resistant Saturn. Behind that was a sister's boyfriend's car (another blue dent resistant Saturn.) His friend in the car wanted to get out and the driver wouldn,t let him so the friend opened the door of the moving car and jumped out. The force form the car that the drunk guy was driving forced Steph's (the second) car on top of Derrick's (the third) car (pictures 2, 3).

After the police showed on the scene, Madeline decided to move her barely injured car to the back of the house, when she discovered that the White Stallion was, in fact, hurt; she no longer had brakes. Also slightly damaged was the car fourth in line, which was tapped by Derrick's car. Sound complicated? Just wait. The bumper of Steph's car hooked onto the hood of Derrick's car, wedged for good (picture 4). When the tow truck got there at 3:30, the man got out, looked at the cars, and left.

When he finally came back a little after 5:30am, with another truck, and a team of firefighters, and a fire truck, and several police officers, we were told to back at least 50 feet away because of the good chance that the cars could explode upon their separation. Steph's car was lifted straight into the air with Derrick's hood attached, let down back onto his car and up again to release the hood (picture 5). All told, there were four cars totaled, including the drunk driver's, and another car damaged. Just to add a little salt to the wound, the drunk driver (who is now in jail because he already had 3 DUIs) ended up being the same person who had kicked in Steph's side view mirror a few months beforehand. If you'll notice in picture 2 both Saturns, for all the damage, and car pieces strewn about the street from both the undercarriage of Steph's and the engine of Derrick's, both Saturns are surprisingly dent free.
