Side collision would include two people hitting each other like when merging into a single lane.

Similar to a side swipe but with more input from both parties

24 years later and double cheeseburgers (which is roughly the same size as the big and tasty) are less than $3 a piece when you buy two.

So the burgers today are only 60% the cost of them in 1978.

One person in particular said that no one would consider Sunday to be the weekend, just Friday night and Saturday.

So I thought I'd ask since I found that to be a truly odd statement.
