^ Reminds me of Cars when Mater goes "cow tippin".
My best guess - going entirely too fast, hitting the tree in the fronr, lifting the back end off the ground, swinging around and coming down on the tree in the back?
At first I thought, he spun out and hit both sideways, but that wouldn't work out.
a) He would most definitely roll the car if he hit the sidewalk perfectly parallel.
b) Even if he did hit the sidewalk sideways and somehow managed to continue through, you would see different deformations - mainly on the right side.
So yes, hitting the tree head on causing the rear end to lift up and slide down on the light fixture seems to be the case. I felt like Jacques Clouseau.... if that's a good thing.
I've actually seen something similar. Only it was a bridge. The guy hit it so hard that the truck's ladder frame actually bent. Bet he isn't working at that company anymore.
Solid brake discs are nearly an inch thick. (Ventilated ones are thicker) They wear down maybe 1/32 of an inch every hundred thousand miles. (I am completely making up these numbers, but they should help you visualize).
Now figure out how stupid or bad a driver you have to be to wear them down to almost nothing?
Perfect.
