All jokes aside, the ute driver was taken to/maybe admitted to hospital and the ute is a write off.
One newspaper I read said the Ute driver was uninjured which allowed me to laugh at all the comments
The Ute being a write off will surely be insignificant compared to the cost of the engine lip and the associated pipes? Anyone with Engineering experience have an idea of what will be involved in repairing it? Or what it costs to keep a machine out of the air for a week?
Another question while I’m on a roll, how does insurance work in situations like this?
