I'd like to know what causes something like this to happen...

Iirc that was an accident recently mentioned on here. I think that it was in an ice storm somewhere, and driver did not make it. But hopefully I am wrong.

I know what it was. I saw this car before Oklahoma Foreign bought it. It was a accident that inculded a huge tree branch right through the windshield. and it hit the seat headrest and twisted it around that way.

The branch sounds more plausible to me than the truck bar. I just couldn't see how the rest of the car would have survived, but the branch makes sense.
