so this is what happed:
ower:
Anyway, I trailered the car from the East Coast to my Midwest destination in July 2000. Actually, I trailered the car almost all the way to my planned destination. After driving about 750 miles, I was very tired so I let my companion drive. I fell asleep in the cab of the truck while she drove. We were 150 miles from the planned destination. In minutes I was fast asleep on the floor of the truck cab.
Suddenly, I was rudely awakened by the sound of the tires hitting the rumble strip at the edge of the highway. Plus, I felt the truck turning over on its side. I couldn't believe it. The truck, trailer and my 442 was leaving the road and turning over -- at highway speed! I knew what was happening and couldn't believe it. It seemed like we slid down the side of the road for a very long time. I was bouncing around between the floor and the bottom of the dash the whole time...... |

Finally, the truck turned completely upside down and stopped on the side of the road. I crawled out of the cab and looked around to see if everyone was okay. My companion was still in the truck, strapped into the driver's seat and there was a small fire at the back of the engine. (Later I found out she was soaked in diesel fuel.) I lost my glasses but I could see she was in trouble. I crawled back into the truck, at some moderate risk to myself, to get the onboard fire extinquisher and put the fire out. I was able to get the extinguisher out after what seemed a very long struggle. Then I put the fire out, with the help of two people who stopped to assist. The whole time I was bleeding from my forehead like a stuck pig. It was intense! My driver finally got out of the cab and walked away from the wreck.
Then I walked down to see my 442. It was crushed up to the top of the doors! Almost all the glass was gone. It was still rigged to the trailer though. ....... |

.......I was heartbroken, but glad to be alive. It was almost a sin. My car was finished except for the interior. I worked for 10 years on this car and in seconds it was destroyed.
DAMN WOMAN DRIVER |

Ok but it must really suck to have your pride and joy trashed by the typical women driver.

Generally, being on a trailer reduces the amount of damage a car could suffer in a rollover. Imagine if the driver had fallen asleep behind the wheel of the Cutlass and run off the road. |
