    I'm figuring the guy under the ute (far side of the road) as it came down is 1 dead, the one under the rear as it came to rest as dead or close to it, maybe the one hanging through the rear window as dying....and the others, who knows??? The stupidity of people never ceases to amaze me and I have been going to car accidents for many MANY years.

    Wow... I've travelled in the back of a ute many times in my life and still do it. Never at high speeds or when doing stupid things though.

    Hi,
    as a kid, two families of 2 + 3 kids, we always travelled in the back of an old GMC ute.
    There was only room for 4 adults in the cab, so we always travelled under the canvas in the back.
    It was an ex army job, with the fold down seats along the sides.
    Yep, scary looking back on it.
    cheers

    Gotta be careful with statements like that..... looking are where that is, I am assuming it is not in Australia, where we are educated in the consequences of our actions on the road, and if we are not educated, we are legislated. It is not so much stupity, but neccesity and ignorance that result in situations like that, in the parts of the world that these things still occur.

    we all have...... grew up in a small town and we went everywhere on the back of a ute..... was great fun......... would I do it now? no, would I let my daughters do it? no, but I now know better, and the roads these days are a far more dangerous place than when I was growing up, and utes travel a whole lot faster than they used to......
