Check out this major wreck, seem like the two riding in the car survived and are up and about after the accident.

Looks impressive...as mentioned above, the cockpit is intact, including the windshield...no reason the crash wouldn't be 100% survivable, assuming everybody is belted in.
Obviously we don't know exactly what happened, but the guardrail appears to have absorbed a lot of the impact(s); had the car hit a more solid object, the passengers may not have been so lucky.

You get a sense that a tire might have gone down by looking at the marks on the road in the 4th picture down. The barrier clearly absorbed a lot of energy, but the car still ended up on the opposite side of the carriage way which means the car must have been travelling at fairly high speed. They were VERY lucky to miss the bridge though. Another foot or two ahead and it likely would have been a different story...and they missed any other traffic that may have been close by.

Looks like the three gals got really shaken up, but otherwise unhurt.
