I thought the article stated the car flipped over & rolled on top of a concrete barrier. Thus the area which is damaged so severly is where the car landed upside down on the barrier. The narrow (1 ft maybee) width of the barrier will buckle any car in this type of situation. That would of been a shit load of force (3K + lb car moving X mph) onto the barrier, it's gonna give.
I also beleive he was upside down so the drivers door could of been wedged against the barier itself, thus not working.
