Results are given of an investigation of a complex event involving three crashes and four vehicles: a 1960 Pontiac four-door sedan (vehicle 1), a 1967 Oldsmobile two-door hardtop (vehicle 2), a 1961 Ford station wagon (vehicle 3), and a 1969 Ford two-door hardtop (vehicle 4). The crash was initiated when the occupants of vehicle 1 turned it around and pushed it down-grade the wrong way on an expressway. It was struck by vehicles 2 and 3. Vehicle 3 went out of control and crossed the median into the path of vehicle 4. This latter crash was the most severe, involving an impact speed of 10-20 MPH for vehicle 3 and 50-60 MPH for vehicle 4. (Author)
