georgleube rough country, all seems to be deserted, except the roads, but they just cross the region, to reach more lively areas, the shattered car fits in a way

good pictures

iustinium An eventful set! Though I hope no one was hurt, and that it was much less serious than it looks!

maharba My wife, the early bird, told me about this story before I could open my eyes. It's great to see the pics and find it even more dramatic. Tres bien.

carmitage If I tell you Leap I have no pictures of Switzerland...would you believe it ?
May be if I go far enough in time !
They are two drivers in each lorry , they rarely stop and take huge risks. So this kind of accident occurs regularly.
Crossing these lorries can give you shivers if you are on the dip side !

photopoet What an incredible set. I was scrolling down and was unprepared for the accident. The perspective of your shot gives a wonderful sense of the expanse. Beautiful coloring.

Jannie Yikes is right! Interesting how colorful the clothing is. Maybe to compensate for the landscapes? Awesome post! Great photos!

ShangriLa How did i miss this set? Thanks for telling me. The truck obviously made an impact on you. Actually, its a strong series to me too. I didn't see anything like that but i did see a rolled truck on a FLAT road. Must have been a drunk driver.

Yes the signs are endearing aren't they? Funnily enough, i found something similar here recently but they were temporary and my photo session ended prematurely with dead batteries. :-( The text was "Drink and drive, there's no where to hide" - and there wasn't in this case.

You got a lot more picture opportunties than me. Were you on a bus? I was in a jeep and we didn't stop much.

The landscape shots look good blown up.
