I Beg Your Pardon?


'Dramatic'? *adopts Paul Hogan accent* That ain't dramatic, mate...this is dramatic! 


And, worryingly, a road I know well! What sort of speed you'd have to be doing to end up there I can't imagine.

Looks like the taxi did not reach the lamp post. The taxi low front end, as in all modern cars is very low, very frangible, and very expensive, got stopped by the high kerb and did what it is designed to do - fall apart.
The Polis car on the wrong side of the road may have distracted the taxi driver.

Shouldn't the media report for the first picture read something like,
"Too high pavement installed by fascist Tories, ruins livelihood of local resident by making it impossible for his car to crash into Tory installed lamppost." .

I've noticed that on modern cars - produces spectacular damage but the occupants usually make it.

""Too high pavement installed by fascist Tories..."
