Once again into the void displaying how little I sometimes know-but can someone walk me through step by step of what happens when a vehicle rams a stopped vehicle.

For this example we'll use the situation that occurred this evening: a PC vehicle is stopped along side a busy highway while the PC's fight off a Go-Gang. As the finish the combat sequence their stopped vehicle is struck by a moving automated drone semi-truck. I know how I ended up resolving this but what is the step by step process folks?
