A colleagues wife and baby were caught up in this:

Both survived but were in hospital for several months. Not much was left of the BMW 5 series saloon and both were found crushed under the dash with the car seat protecting the baby.
On the way to work a couple of years back I was held up by the Police attending an accident. A driver had driven in to the back of a stationary refuse truck pinning the worker between the car an the truck. Apparently the car driver had nodded off.
The doctor's helicopter landed in a field right next to my car. Luckily the bin lifting mechanism saved the worker from any serious injury.
