Its the basis of how well the car is made to with stand a side crash. > Not trying to argue but my grandma was going ~35 and the truck hit her (speeding) @ 47 (verified by the cop sitting on the corner which saw the whole thing.) (also was perfectly t boned) so a semi that wieghs about 5 or more of those fruit trucks (fully loaded tanker truck) hit with a combine force of around 82mph. so yes that is comparable. Not trying to be a dick in any way. Im just baffled at the way it turned out. And to this thread, and telling me to suck a fatty. It was a joke, and joe you out of all people should know shift = ball busters. Like ive never been the spotlight of the week and you bashing me. sooo :hug and dont let it get to you. you still don’t make any sense…unless you are leaving out more details. You can only add the speeds of the two cars together if they hit while going the complete opposite direction. Unless your grandma too lost control and hit the truck coming the in the opposing lane then NO is it not comparable. Sounds like your grandma was going 35mph when a truck going 47 t-boned her… NOT a force of 82mph. Its just a 47mph crash --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/joey/242395)._
