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!
