It was largely this crash that caused him to take so long to get the Insight mounts done. I think he might have been avoiding the car after having had such an accident. He walked away from it without any serious injuries, but at one point was believed to have pulled more than 20 G's in the spin and tumble, resulting in bursting a lot of small blood vessels throughout his body. He was purple and black all over.

Edit: unrelated but today it was unseasonably warm. I reset my meter when I got on the highway and over the net zero elevation ~20 mile drive home from shopping I managed 52mpg traveling at an average of 75mph.
