    I don't know why the truck didn't just back off the Ferrari

    Wonder who was at fault. Funny though.

    The voices in my head may not be real, but they have some good ideas!

    The guy driving the Ferrari is going to get screwed because he went over the double yellow.

    Looks like Ferrari guy was trying to avoid getting run-over by a left-turning truck driver who wasn't paying attention.

    No skid marks either so it looks like a pretty slow-speed accident. Any faster, though, and I'd bet that LF wheel would have been the driver's seat.

    The F-150 guy is definitely going to get dropped by his insurance after that one hits his report!

    The engine is still good. I wonder if it would fit in a 510?

    In reply to oldsaw:

    Yep. It probably varies by state, but it can go from "not your fault" to "Partially your fault" if you break a law during the accident, even if you are trying to avoid the crash. If no witnesses can be found, it gets even worse. Unless the Ferrari's insurance argues that the car was knocked over the line during the accident, the truck's insurance will probably argue Ferrari was driving in a reckless manner, as evidenced by the photos showing it on the wrong side of the road.

    It happened to my wife.
