Totaled AW E92 M3 in West Hollywood: Anyone Here?

Around 7:30 this evening @ Sunset & Crescent Heights in West Hollywood, an AW E92 M3 was totaled w/ two other cars. The entire front end of the M3 was smashed in. I saw the drive being strapped to a gurney. Was it anyone here?

Well, hopefully not...but if they got strapped to a gurney, chances are they aren't going to be online for a bit.

You'd be surprised. EMS guys are freaking retards about those damned boards sometimes. Hopefully the driver is ok, and they were "overreacting" again.

Would you rather have them be on the safe side or leave someone with permanent damage?

Plus if someone is just acting like a toughguy and and ends up with c-spine damage the EMT could be held responsible for failure to provide aduquate medical treatment. Car crashes are the 2nd mot commom mechanism of injury for the c-spine. Car crash= spineboard. Sounds like a smart/safe medic to me!

Hope everyone's OK!

Sorry to hear. I hope everyone is ok and has a speedy recovery. Also, let's hope it was a genuine accident and not the result of anyone, especially the M3 guy, driving unsafely.
