"Honey, can you go start the car.. don't forget to depress the clutch, it's in first gear."

The occupants are probably shaken up but alive, unless somebody had a medical problem and went off the road. At least it didn't go completely under the trailer that would be a mess.

Does not appear the air bags deployed. May not have been as violent of an impact as it appears. Hope all are ok.

Florida. Nuff said.
