I was in a 67 Beetle when a full sized US car hit me head on while I was stopped at a light -popped me up into the air where it did a full flip before landing on it's wheels - and collapsed them. The front end was damaged a *LOT* & and the rest of the car as well. I had a broken colar arm and some scratches & cuts. Even made the newspaper!
