hummer vs school bus (pic)
 

That's a H2 or 3 for you

What's the story?

Hummer loses... :Oh crap:Oh crap

i bet they looked cool crashing though, hopefully everyone made it out safely :)

yeah school buses are tanks...same with firetrucks

even ambulances are mega hunks of metal

hummer crashed into school bus apparently :winkwink:

i dont know , just one of those pics that makes you go "wow"

doesnt look so good when the front of the car is smashed into the back seat :helpme

Photoshopped...

One person was injured yesterday morning when a Hummer crashed into a school bus.

No children were on the Indianapolis Public Schools bus when it collided with the Hummer at Terrace Avenue and Madison Avenue, according to Marion County police.

Police closed Madison Avenue near Pleasant Run Parkway North Drive while firefighters worked to extricate the driver of the SUV out of the vehicle.

The victim was awake and transported to an area hospital.

i was thinking that for a sec 2 but then i found the story

:(:(:(:(

Cheese Wagon 1, Hummer 0. Congrats to the winners.

I'm sure the story is real but that pic looks fake as hell.

who said a Hummer is safe... they just look safe. i'd like to see the same accident with a Smart car

Hmm, guess it is real. That pic was just from a bad angle.

thanks god he was only in humer, saved for 5cm i think...

I guess we know who one that parking space

lucky there was no passenger.

In middle school a semi style tow truck hit our school bus, side swiped us at about 55mph, right in the front doors... jacked the bus up pretty bad, but not compared to the tow truck. It was missing the entire front end, down to the windshield - just ripped it off.

Them flat back frames on buses are bad ass strong... and some have i-beam cross mounts, they may sound like crap and look like crap, but they actually are very safe for the kids. Not that crap doesn't happen but in most cases, the bus wins, even up against semi's.

This should be done to all hummers as soon as possible.

Not surprised really. Bus has got a massive crash-bar on the back.

Looks like the Hummer's safety features did their job. Crumple zones to absorb the energy from the crash and airbags & seat belts to protect the occupants.

if anyone had been in the passenger seat they would certainly be dead

Well number 1 thats not a hummer. thats a linkoln with a box on the top.

A Smart car doesnt have crumple zones. It wont deform near as much and all that energy from impact is transferred to the occupants.

Amazing how many people dont understand why cars deform as much as they do in a crash.

Actually the smart car is rated very high for accidents. Also what speed did the hummer hit the bus at?

When did General Motors start making "linkoln" as you call it?

I stand corrected, the Smart Car has small crumple zones... an improvement over the last time I looked at the European version a few years ago.

i just took the Smart as example because of its size. i actually understand pretty good how crumple zones work, but either the Hummer hit the bus at 50 or 60 mph or more or its crumple zone sucks - because the passenger cell is supposed to stay intact and the massive intrusion of the dashboard you see on the pictures is not supposed to happen with a safely designed car. because the best crumple zone doesn't help when you are crushed between seat, steering wheel and dashboard.

but thanks for assuming i'm stupid

i dont think thats original hummer., i heard og hummer is like a tank, u cant beat it.

Firetrucks even more so!!! Those things are heavy!

Seems it's real indeed.

That's not a Hummer though -> "Except that's not a real Hummer (H1). That's a glorified Chevy Blazer or GMC Yukon."

That's what happens when you put a hummer shell atop a GMC Tahoe platform.

school bus 1 - hummer 0

School bus win the race!!

WOw! What a piece of junk.
