People joke that Haiti is where school buses come to die. Same with Mack trucks. And t-shirts. And a lot of other things. This moment reminded me of emergency exit practice in the back parking lot of Central School.

Living in Haiti? Want to be a cool cat? I’d recommend getting a Zongshen 125, pimping it out with some chrome, picking out one of those USG-distributed wind-up radios, throwing in the headphones, and then chilling.
All around town I see cars that were totally destroyed by the earthquake. Many of the cars are upside down, smashed beyond recognition, or poking out from under a pancaked building. It is difficult to imagine the force required to crush an SUV.
We often see cars on the road – driving – that were heavily damaged by falling buildings and debris. I’ve seen cars with no windshields, cars with roofs crushed like aluminum foil, massively dented cars missing whole body panels and doors. Half the time the streets look like a demolition derby.
This poor guy was trying in vain to retrieve pieces of the V6 engine from his destroyed Acura.
