Scary video from a safety worker perspective

This video shows why even a safety barrier can't be relied upon to protect people. When someone asks why they can't loiter by the wall trackside, this video shows why.

Luckily no one was injured in this incident; probably because everyone had their attention focused on the race.

Very interesting; there is another YouTube video of the same type of car crashing at the same track but it hits a tire barrier and comes to a quick/safe stop. In the first video the car hits Armco barrier and is not slowed at all which leads to the roll and barrier hurdling! Sad
