An excellent case of inadequate tethering. What a mess.

Thanks Galen.

Surprising how little damage there appears to be to the front of that Chrysler!

@moe-parr  Back when bumpers were meant for bumping.  The car will probably need a bumper, fenders and maybe a grille but it's relatively minor damage all things considered.  That is assuming they didn't total it trying to get it grounded.

On second viewing I suspect the second car must have shifted forward and shunted the first one off.  Look at the space for the first car on the trailer....rather short??
