Sorry for my stupidity, what do you mean biohazard? Did the 4runner crash into some sewer system or what does that mean specifically?

I don't want to get in trouble for being graphic.
So forgive please....Biohazard=biological fluids. Yes more than likely ones that came out of the human driving said vehicle.

Thats not a good sign .......... someone most likely died in that one.

ptung07, Usually when labeled as a bio hazzard it's more than just blood. ( sadly)

Very sad indeed. But on the plus side, I find it amazing on how well the 4Runners stand up to this kind of damage. All in all, the frames look like they held together. I feel very safe in my runner, but I know it's limits. And of course, always wear a seat belt. Kinda neat to see the side airbags deployed. I've never seen what they looked like "uncaged" before.

It takes quite a bit of force to dislodge the rear axle from the frame. From my accident investigation experience speed looks to have played a large part in those accidents resulting in loss of control and rollover.
They do hold up retty good as far as the cabin/passenger area goes.

Aw that is very sad. thanks for clearing it up. god bless the people in the vehicles.

In the 1st and 3rd pictures, there looks to be slight damage to the cabin but not much. All the other pictures the cabin looks pretty intact. Makes me feel better driving the 4Runner...
