They could describe it as a split beetle and not be wrong.

Just found this on Facebook. They survived. And that is not human hair on the passenger side. It was one of those tiki things from Hawaii. At least that's that the comments said.

I saw those pictures yesterday on Facebook as well. Simply horrifying pictures. I'm very glad the driver survived it. Hopefully he can make a full recovery.
