Driver of the wrong-way vehicle, an SUV, was arrested for DUI.  Passenger in
the Midget was decased at the scene, the driver hospitalized.  No identities
released yet.  Looks like Massachusetts plates on the Midget.  I'll update
with info when it becomes available.  The accident scene is fairly close to
Fenway Park.

OMG!  Horrific crash!  My heart & prayers go out to the Spridget driver's
family.

After I recovered from looking at the near-complete destruction of the
Spridget, it occurred to me that the 5 MPH bumper didn't do anything to
weaken the impact.  Did it?  Video didn't show the wrong-way (likely
drunk-driven) vehicle.  Probably an SUV with higher bumper.

Accidents like this are just another reason I do most of my old sports car
driving on the race track.  There, we're all trained, usually experienced &
going in the same direction.
