I'm not sure I believe that or not. The entire cab of the truck is squashed FLAT by the ROOF. I can't believe anyone walked away from that "unharmed". Just coming out alive would surprise me.

EDIT: also, why did the entire roof collapse?? I hope roofs are strong enough to take a hit from a trailer going at slow speeds and not totally collapse! I'm calling BS on this one

I always drag my 36ft travel trailer to the drive-thru ATM.

It wasn't the entire cab. Just the door frame. The driver and his 10 year old son escaped with no injuries.

mmmmmm, crow...tastes like chicken

I sill can't believe that whole awning/roof fell when the trailer hit it! I thought those things would be built better than that. Glad noone else was under it at the time. Don't most banks have concrete poles to prevent stuff like this?
