"Drop Shipment"..................................................................................

Actually, I think that's what happens when the new officer decides his car chase has to feel like a movie chase, and jumps the unmarked police car into an autorack hoping to end up launching onto of the suspect vehicle...
 


LOL, Josh, that's the first thing I thought of too. That's obviously a Ford Crown Vic Police Interceptor unit that was bound for some department. Some chief wasn't too happy when he saw this picture. And yes, those airbags do work. :)
 
Nah - that's the Jeff Foxworthy redneck way of unloading. Drop the tailgate of a pickup, drive real fast in reverse, and then hit the brakes. Everything in the bed of the truck slides out the back and on to the driveway.
 


Hey good pic.
You'd be surprised... no more like alarmed to find out how many new cars are damaged during shipping, repaired, then sold as new!
 
I went to get a wrecked Bronco that ended up like that back in the 1980's (1985, if you must know). It was hanging on the front of the car carrier, the driver had put it in drive instead of reverse. No airbags in that one, and it ended up about a foot shorter than a stock Bronco...
