“They were in shock and the first thing they did was make sure the kids were okay and they were relieved that everyone was just fine. The car was dead and stuck in gear and we could not get it in to [sic] neutral to push off the road. It will most likely be considered totaled,” Carl Hobi told Newsweek.
