On the plus side their indicators still work.

Or only their hazard lights are now working.

There were two people involved in this accident. The female was transported to The Canberra Hospital by the Snowy Hydro SouthCare rescue helicopter – she had sustained head and internal injuries.

These sort of images always get me thinking – how the heck did they get there?!
Hope they all got out OK and good on the services for doing their best work to get them out alive.

Hope everyone is ok, or at least recovers quickly. Quite nasty by the looks of it.

Strewth, that’s a hell of a place to park. Hope the fellow/lass is okay.
Just looking at that picture, it’s good to know that the fine emergency services folk don’t mess about when stuff gets serious (not that I imagined for a second that they would, of course).

Oh! Oh my. That dosn’t look good. That’s the back half of the car still on the bridge right? Poor driver.
On the plus side their indicators still work.
