Impressive MINI Cooper crash - Occupants okay

I hate to see our beloved cars get involved in a wreck of any kind especially of this magnitude. Thankfully a MINI friend in California made it out okay. Glad to see the MINI took the crash fairly well. Notice the utility pole? The MINI took it out. It’s quite an impressive wreck. Check out these pics:

	Holy Cow! That is some crash Were the occupants ambulatory? Sort of looks like they went airborne and hit the power pole. Thanks for showing us what a MINI can do in the way pf protecting it's occupants.
