My husband and I were going across the Courtney Cambell Causeway for a late lunch today. On the other side of the road we saw a black C6 scrunched in the middle of two other cars. Not the kind of sandwhich we were looking for. Didn't look like anyone was hurt but it was still sad to see. Hope it wasn't any of our Forum buddies......
