It does not look like the person in this car lived.

She was extremely lucky and only ‘walked’ away with a shattered wrist, staples in her head, and A LOT of bumps and bruises.

They later found out that the driver was doing 70 mph and was texting. When he finally looked up from his phone it was too late and was unable to even step on his brakes.
