    Oh good eye, I think you’re right especially from the paint on the bumper

      So reversing the car should flatten the ballard again and get the car free? Or maybe the ballard only went to an acute angle and lifted the car up till the ballard poked through a weak point in the frame. Either way she’s reversed into it at a decent speed…and then completed her yoga class before calling for help.

          Your ass is probably correct.

          Also the bollard was initially pushed down by the rigid frame of the car. Now it is inside the boot. The inside of the boot will be pushing against it.

          Now they’re going to call roadside rescue and going to have to explain how they need a crane rather than a tow truck.

            The bollard needs to be replaced at this point. May as well just cut it off. Hiring a crane is unnecessary.
