Another reason to ALWAYS wear your restraining devices AKA Seat belts!!! Hwy 36 wins again!!!!
Painful to even read. I hope he gets to a hospital soon.
Omg.. any vehicle description?

AND, always travel with medical personnel…
Seat belts may be a government plot, but they could help…
Government plot hmmm. Please feel free not to apply yours next few or for that matter any time you get in a Vehicle … remember the life you save won’t be yours.
Seatbelts are the law because taxpayers foot the bill when you’re in a coma.
Most safety laws are designed to protect people without common sense,from themselves
👍
Let’s blame the deer, bigfoot, a low flying condor as the scapegoat. Human stupidity can’t possibly be a cause and affect here. Was he carrying a new dubbie harvest to sell in Arcata? Cars don’t crash by themselves and spew the occupants out. Glad no one died,but what lesson did he (they) learn form this accident???????
Well at least no tree were hit this time !
Oh dear,I hope he’s going to be ok.its slick out drive safe
Ouch! He’s lucky to be alive
Unless he has not insurance…or the driver…
Seat belts really do work, duh…
