Check out the aftermath of this frightening North Carolina C5 Corvette crash that shines a light on the value of always buckling up.
State troopers say the 62-year-old driver of this black C5 Corvette Z06 and his 15-year-old passenger were not wearing seatbelts when he lost control and the car ran underneath the rear wheels of an 18-wheeler on NC 211 in Moore County.
The two occupants of the C5 suffered broken bones and had to be carried for treatment to the hospital, according to a report on CBS17 News out of Raleigh, Durham, and Fayetteville.
The Corvette suffered major damage to the front end, losing its hood and both front fenders and the door panel on the passenger side. Video from the scene shows the back tires of the trailer bowing outward.

Notice the Corvette has a roll cage. That’s not stock.That means his car’s been all hopped up and modified
If you drive without a seat belt, you’re an idiot. Period.
