I went on this MVA today at work...pictures will show the rest.
It came in as an MVA rollover with entrapment. Update from CSP was car vs. pole with serious injuries and entrapment. We arrived and found the car split in two. Just behind the B post on the passengers side is where the pole sliced through the vehicle. There were two patients so a second rig and med unit were called along with LifeStar Helicopter. We ended up removing the roof and passengers side door. The driver was walking around but was also transported due to mechanism of injury. I did hear an update from the hospital and they said the injuries were pretty serious. If the pole hit 6 inches closer to the front it would have been DOA. Lucky.
FYI: The speed limit on this road is 35mph.
