Not to glorify someone else's pain, but only to learn from how 914s behave in accidents. For a vehicle that is close to 50 years old, low to the ground with limited safety provisions, I think its amazing at the level of occupant survivability in these cars.

Got any descriptive photos? Also please note any facts of the incident and the extent of known injuries.

Please do not post if it may cause someone else grief, that's not the point of this thread.

Here is one (avoidable) accident. Effectively a head-on and they lived.
