And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

Your insurance company is calling to tell you your policy is cancelled
It's probably where the airbag hit. I have experienced the joy of an airbag deployment when I hit a deer at 70mph. Nobody got hurt except the car. (...and the deer.) The airbag did its job, but it shattered the windshield above the steering wheel.
I saw a McLaren spin on a left turn in Dubai. It was like the road was covered in oil. The driver wasn't going very fast but once the back tires broke free he was along for the ride as there was nothing he could do. He lucky and didn't hit anything. A car with lots of torque/HP and little weight needs extra care as bad things can happen quickly.
The wall is to be feared.
