Remember that famous Mercedes-Benz television advert where, based on actual events, the driver of a Mercedes-Benz W123 survived driving off of Chapman’s Peak in Cape Town? Well, we may just have found the follow-up ad to that…
While we don’t know what caused this Utah woman to accelerate through a train crossing in the first place, this dramatic dashcam footage from an attending patrol car shows how her Mercedes-Benz is first struck by one train and then, as the police officer attempts to free her is struck by another passing train.
Incredibly, the driver survived both impacts with only a broken arm.
