So he made contact with the blue wrangler. I am trying to piece this one together. Looking at the first picture, the Red Jeep was going pretty damn fast, so I have to assume that at this intersection, he wasn't waiting at a red light and then going at green. He ran a red at a high rate of speed, and the blue wrangler made contact with the right rear of the passing red jeep, causing it to violently swing the back out ~90 degrees to the right. Then the tires clip the curb as the vehicle leans precariously, causing it to turn onto its side just before the pole. I anticipate that a vehicle with a curved roof might have fared better due to the inherent strength of an arch in that scenario, but even so it seems unlikely that most vehicles could survive this impact.
