Trig Discipline: Jun 3, 2008; Please leave the room if you think this might offend you.; Grimey Drawer

Here's how car crashes actually work:

Firstly the smaller of the two vehicles rolls initiative for each tire and passenger. Initiative = dice roll (d20) + dexterity bonus (power steering) + size bonus (gross vehicle weight) + speed bonuses (such as nitrox). Then write down the order on a piece of paper so you can keep track of whose go it is, first at the top. In the event of having an equal number, then both cars must reroll.
Once the order is complete then begin with the most northerly car and work your way southwards.
On each car's go they can either block and attack, attack then block or release one passenger through the windshield as a ranged weapon.
To be able to cast long ranged passengers or eject a baby carrier, make sure they have a unobstructed line of sight. To do this, choose any edge of your car's lane and make an imaginary straight line to the opposing car's rear view mirror. If there are no obstructions your car can see the enemy.
To use a fire attack: dice roll (d20) + base attack bonus + mpg modifier + bonuses (such as diesel or e90 fuels). If the total amount is equal to or larger then the enemy's armour class then that car hits then you should roll the appropriate damage dice depending on the bumper depth your character is equipped with. If the total amount is lower, the car misses.
Keep working through the list until either all the passengers die or all the cars no longer operate.

I'm pretty sure that's all going to be taken care of in the 6th edition of the highway physics ruleset, but for now they just pass through each other and reroll for a traditional wreck on the astral plane. One interesting side effect of this workaround is that all physical damage is replaced with psychological trauma.

Are the cars traveling in the same direction at the same speed when they crash? Are the internal organs on a treadmill?
