Wait... I'm confused. Have you seen a real script? I mean, wouldn't you just go: quote:
EXT. Country Road - Day.
Without warning, a giant truck plows into Don's tiny car! It flips through the air, smashing against a stand of trees and tumbling down an embankment, until it comes to rest against a stone wall.
The truck screeches to a stop, and nearly jacknives.
INT. Don's Car - Day.
Don opens his eyes. He chokes on the thick smoke, and wipes blood from his forehead.
You can also say: INT/EXT Don's Car/Country Road - Day and not have to re-slug.  | PerryKroll.com | TRC | "If not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled." Wodehouse

Ah yes. That's where the INT/EXT slugline comes in handy. Then you can switch between action inside and out without having to re-slug, and it's totally obvious to the reader what's going on anyway. After all, novels don't say "meanwhile, OUTSIDE the car..." | PerryKroll.com | TRC | "If not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled." Wodehouse
