When RoRo ferries sink, people die, or they survive. And of course, they have to leave their now rusted and corroded vehicles behind. Let's have a look at all those sunken vehics:

Antp, could you format my photos? Anyway...
DAF? Volvo? Looks like a Mercedes SK, but it wasn't made back then. On (or better: near) the Zenobia , sunk off the coast of Cyprus in 1980:

Has someone got photos of the car deck from the Estonia? I can't find any: I know the Express Samina by the way, I used to be a shipwreck expert for years.

More vehicles on the Salem Express include a bicycle, an Enduro motorcycle and a toy car that, after 23 years of Red Sea currents has survived extremely well.
