[Scan-DC] Crash last night

"but the windshield on the passenger side had still been shattered by some impact from within"

Not really that uncommon.  Some air bags mounted on the top off the dash will break the windshield- especially if there is a GPS, EZ-Pass or scanner sitting on the dash.

While out on my bicycle, I happened upon the scene of a two-car collision a few weeks ago. The car that was worse off had both driver and passenger airbags. I think that's required now, right? At any rate, I could see that both bags in that car had deployed, but the windshield on the passenger side had still been shattered by some impact from within. I pointed out the disparity to one of the Alexandria PD officers on the scene, but he didn't seem to think that of significance.

Thanks DK. It was very unnerving. I knew she was in shock. To bad she seemed like a nice girl. He was a jerk. He showed no concern for her at all. His air bag went off, but hers was not visible, so either it did not deploy, or it did and I could not see it. the car was totaled. I actually heard the car racing up Old Baltimore Road and I thought here we go again, and then brakes, next impact.
