Driver Sustains Only Minor Injuries After Car Is Sliced In Two
If you took a look at this horrifying aftermath footage of an accident in Cloverdale, California without any context, you’d probably be convinced there was at least one fatality. But no.
In fact, the driver of the Chevrolet Impala you see sliced in two - 26-year-old Apol Lansang - only suffered minor injuries after a Toyota Sequoia driven by 27-year-old Kevin Fenty crossed onto her side of highway and hit her car head on.
The passenger side of the Chevrolet bore the brunt of the crash, tearing off and ending up half way up a grass verge. Had anyone else been in the Impala, this story might not have had such a favourable outcome.
Fenty meanwhile was thrown clear of his Toyota during the crash, suffering more moderate injuries. A local news report states that “drugs are believed to be a factor”.

The drivers status after surviving the crash.
That is indeed horrifying, its great to see they walked out of it alive
Man, the Sequoia is literally built like a tree.
They are massive. Not as long as the competition, but a lot wider and sturdier.
Wait…this is a phone video…and its horizontal…starts applauding
Legend says, they hooked up later that week and went out for drinks and drugs.
This should be all the proof you need… What do you buy? Chevy or Toyota? :P
Seriously though, an inch closer and this could’ve really ended her life.
Amazing that everyone walked away from this crash, considering it more closely resembles a plane crash than a car crash
Glad the driver is okay , Sad that the car is Impala-ed
The damage here just leaves me stumped…
And im here thanking “damn despite its history the Sequoia is a tank”
That’s the difference of crashing at 35 and 55, but honestly I want those two halves of the impala, that’s the kind of modern art I want in my house.
I agree.
A split second decision could of have avoided the crash
Just like a split second decision also caused it.
