But it didn't split in half. It can't be made by Honda/Acura.

Yeah, pretty sure it's a TL and very happy to hear those 2 made it out safely w/o a scratch. I didn't bother reading the article but I hope no one else was injured badly. That looked like a nasty fireball.

YIKES! Notice that neither front airbag deployed.

Don't think the front airbags will deploy unless the sensor senses a definite front-end collision/impact. From the looks of things, the TL may have been swiped and spun into the center divider. The rear bumper is sitting like 20-30ft away.

If that's a TL, it's not a 3G.

Here's to your fail

+1 Sucks that the airbags didn't deploy.

Yes but it wasnt T-boned by a benz either.

Glad they made it out ok.
