E92 Crash on 495

Just saw this on the MSP twitter page a few days ago. Poor E92 squished between two semis.

Hope everyone is okay. That's a huge fear of mine. I may be the douchebag that floors it past 18 wheelers in the left lane, but I do not want to stick around.

I know the owner of this car. He walked away without a scratch. He only had the car a few months, it was a 2010 335i 6MT Msport Dinan stage 3.

How on earth did these cars get sandwiched between the semis?? I'm glad they're okay and that the driver walked away, but the cars are positioned in an odd way.

Sad to see a vehicle like that totaled. Any context to the accident?

All I know was that he was rear ended by an 18 wheeler. There were a few other people involved from my understanding.

WOAH! I caught the aftermath of this! I was on my way to work and I saw this, but I didn't see the e92 as I passed through the scene. I only saw that red car behind it squished and bunch of others car that were involved along size of the road.

it looks as though the 18-wheeler was rear-ended or T-boned by the BMW!



what's up with that?!?

also - what's going on with the Neon(?)?

it might seem like the two cars may have been 'going at it' and somebody got
bumped, lost control and went into/under a semi...

then again, maybe a semi changed lanes when a car was already there and it
got caught by the trailer - although this doesn't agree with 'got rear-ended'.

Problem with this is that trucks in MA are restricted to the middle and right lanes. So the semi might have been illegally driving in the left passing lane.

I find running my car under a semi illegally driving in the left lane on 495 really
teaches its operator a lesson!

THE HORROR! Tried to thread the needle, except the needle was dozens of thousands of pounds of heavy metal! Hope he has good coverage, and that nobody was hurt!
