Couple survives shocking 50-foot fall from NYC overpass in Toyota Matrix

It doesn't matter the make or model - modern vehicles are technological miracles when it comes to occupant crash protection. Take this story out of New York City, which involved two people going for a very wild ride in a Toyota Matrix.

Carlos and Raquel Broadbelt were on the Cross Bronx Expressway overpass when they hit a patch of slippery ice while dodging a pothole, sending them hurtling into a guardrail and over the side of the overpass. They fell 50 feet onto the road below. Despite the catastrophic accident - and the mangled Toyota - both driver and passenger walked away. The couple spent a night in the hospital just for observation.
