As I am reading the daily news I saw this, it's so physics. This accident happened between 6th Ave. and West 45th street, in which the two vehicles collided. A witness stating that the cab ran the red light and the garbage truck slammed into it. Three passengers including the yellow cab driver were injured. As you can notice it did not look that the truck was speeding, it was quite slow. However the impact was loud and massive.
The garbage truck has greater momentum. Therefore, anything on its way will get damaged because the truck will be harder to stop. The yellow cab will have the least momentum because it can easily be stopped.
