It's bad enough I'm sometimes crowded off the freeway by jerks driving these big trucks. Time to install the anti-tank barricades in front of the garage!

Happy Motoring, Mark

I could be wrong, but it looks staged to me.

According to one of the follow up posts on that forum it says

"The story I read about the pictures said the guy in the truck was drunk and going 75+ in a residential when he hit the curb and lost control...."

Besides, who would go to those lengths to stage something like that?

My girlfriend knew people who ripped and rebuilt their personal 9 hole golf course on their front lawn every time they got tired of it but trashing that 360 on purpose is just sick

I noticed that too. Perhaps the momentum of the car teamed with the collapsing garage door as a ramp caused the effect?
