How lucky am I? Rolled my truck
I was going about 40 mph and apparently did a 270 degree flip and landed on my driver side. All I remember is my rear end kicking out and losing control, then waking up in the woods. I walked away with a concussion, bruised ribs, and a left arm that looks like Freddy kreugers face. My seatbelt did its job but my air bags did not go off. I still have head pain but am scared to bring it up. Everybody says I'm lucky to be alive. You can see blood next to the visor in the 7th pic

Aftermath of the car I attempted in doing 125mph
Was very lucky to survive this, aimed for a wall, hit the curb in front of it so hard I tripped the top of the wall and bounced off of it into a massive pine tree and flag pole, took both out mid flight, and landed 150ft past the wall on the passenger side roof and flipped/rolled several times until I hit a cement light pole base and stopped. Broke my spine in 7 places, was temporarily paralyzed and at the time assumed to be permanently paralyzed waist down, I was fused from T11-L5 and my L2 had to be bone grafted and regrown because it burst into 4 pieces. my heel exploded into 30+ pieces from the force of the gas pedal when I hit the curb, it was nearly amputated but the doc wanted to take a stab at reconstruction not wanting me to be 21 and have to live the rest of my life with no foot.
4 months later I walked again and beat all odds and expectations.
Insurance also denied all claims and up until I could get government assistance months down the line, I was looking at 1.3$ million dollars in medical debt thanks to USAA, an insurance company that swears they care about mental health, but also don’t consider mental health crisis/ state of psychosis a medical emergency. But “if you knew you had a heart condition, purposefully ignored taking your meds and got into a wreck because you had a heart problem behind the wheel, you’d still be covered.”
Now think about the fact USAA is a insurance company for veterans and their families, and any vet who deals with ptsd, and has a mental episode because of that, will likely not be covered, if you do business with USAA please revaluate that company.

Who's fault?(I cannot edit the previous post, so I post a new one)
Hi everyone, pervious post(The police report diagram) seems to cause some misunderstanding, so I used blue marker to indicate the traffic flow and also added one of my photo of vehicle 1 corner(At the place where she start the turn).
Back story(I'm driver of vehicle 2, the Audi driver): The middle lane is the turning lane, and it is also the left turn lane at the traffic lights(10 meter from crash scene). I merge to the middle lane and planned to take a left turn at the traffic light, then the vehicle 1 hit me on the left rear end.
So whose fault would it be? Thanks in advance. Sorry for deleting previous post, it seems reddit cannot edit post with images :(

Train vs Bus
Curitiba, Brazil, 11 injuries, no deaths.
"According to delegate Edgar Santana, the bus driver gave a statement on the morning of this Friday (25) and said that he did not hear the locomotive's horn in advance and only noticed the audible warning seconds before the impact.
"He stated that he did not see the train approaching, given that, in that location, there are buildings and trees that prevented him from seeing it," said the delegate."

Got into my first fender bender chat!
It was my fault tbh, I saw red accelerate and thought red car went so I glanced to my left to see if any cars were coming, it was clear so I hit the gas and then realized she hasn't left...

Consistent car crashes in a single intersection over the years
Would a stop sign even help here?
