Car accidents in the 1940’s were a complex and evolving issue. They were influenced by various factors such as the state of automotive technology, road infrastructure and societal norms of the time. Here I show a snapshot of a minor accident involving an Oldsmobile.
These images show a 1937 Oldsmobile after a crash. The first image taken at the crash scene, the second after the car had been towed to a wrecker.
The Olds has been towed to a recycling facility.
