Could be worse, you could be this guy:

The interesting thing is that we were on a 2 lane road where the speed limit is 45. The dodge was parked on the side of the road and somehow the dude in the Villager slammed into the front of the Dodge....hard to tell but the fence next to the Dodge is actually bent as a result. The Villager had no plates on it and you can see the writing on the windows from it being up for sale. Just don't know if the guy was on the test drive, or had just bought it.

It was definitely one of those "what the hell???" moments when we first drove by it lol.
 
Im no accident investigator but based on the tire laying behind it and just left side skid marks, Id say the minivan lost a tire and then lost control.
I would also guess that "runs good" no longer applies.

All 4 tires were still on the Villager...we weren't sure what that one was doing there.
 
Totally obvious to the trained eye--the driver of the Villager executed an emergency "hazard avoidance" maneuver to avoid running over an object (tire) in the road. You know, kinda like when people swerve to avoid running running over a squirrel and kill everyone in the oncoming lane of traffic?
