Got to be a photoshop job. ...the car would have had to be driving backwards at one smeg of a speed to do do that much damage... ...its a fliping Fiat! they barely go forwards! ...plus the pole would have sheared off... aint that strong.
...kinda killed it.. but still funny and worthy of bling

WTF???? Something isn't right there.

If memory serves me well that pic is from South Africa, and I drove past that car(?) most days as it was on display at the side of the road. It was near the Randburg Waterfront, the car was a Fiat Uno Turbo, they where very popular in South Africa but there is hardly any left now as most of them look like that car in the pic. Fiat Uno's have particularly soft bodies and when they crashed they crumpled all over the place.Originally Posted by WRT

Hence why I said "fixed position" rather than "speed camera" - although the "fixed position" part is now up for debate as well.
Well . . . it is a Fiat Uno Turbo, ~110bhp, 0-100 in less than 8 seconds and a top speed of around 200kph. I've never heard of them as being particularly strong in the boot area, so I'm picking that if you were to reverse it with enough pace into a steel pole it will fold like a tin can.
I'm not saying it isn't a fake, but who ever did it went to a fair bit of trouble to get the shadows etc right, not to mention the dimensions. Whatever that Fiat did back into must have been the same thickness as the camera pole, and it looks like the whole lot has just been relocated to a wrecking yard.

If the car lost control at speed, started spinning, and then just happened to hit the camera facing rearward, this result could occur. And as the car and camera are in what looks like some kind of wrecker's or impound yard, then the camera may well have sheared off at the base.

Lack of debris, tyre marks etc on the ground make it "staged"
I blame the Labour Government
I would think, that if the pole sheared off, as it looks like it has done then the car surely wouldnt be so wrapped around it. It seems unlikely that the pole took all the force that car could muster then after it was wrapped round and most of the force spent it then broke free from the ground. Could be real though, i'm just doubting it. cool pick though wrt

Great pic mate! but judging by the background I would say that it is in a wreckers yard, every other car is busted up too.
Probably had to cut the pole off to remove the wreckage, doesn't look fake to me.

Are those gum trees in the background - could be an Australian wrecker's yard.
