I actually thought they would have hit the belgium block diamond pattern further back, but coming out of the move, the kid didn't recover.

Wow. How fast was she going? Shouldn't the car be able to handle a bump like that? Can't really tell how high the curb is from your pictures, is it pretty high? Hope she had clean undewear to change into after it happened. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
