Cheers.
The messed up thing is that he wasn't wearing his seat belt, which is why he went out the front window (never mind he didn't hit his legs/knees on the dash), but if he'd have worn his belt he'd be dead... The passenger side was crushed into the center console. I royally screwed up and was stupid, it was a good life lesson, and I am VERY lucky that I didn't hurt/kill my friend.

My airbag/seat belt saved me from serious facial/body injury (and probably my life)... This was a '93, no passenger airbag. Luck, god, good driving, not our time...

Post accident, like right after, I couldn't figure out why my friend wasn't there. He was in on it (the speeding), but I couldn't have lived with myself if I had hurt someone... Dumb stuff you do at 20.
