RENAULT CLIO IN THE AIR AFTER HITTING PALM TREE

Quite hectique. A Renault Clio cleaned a palm tree in Buitenkant Street, Cape Town, last night.

Car accidents aren’t our favourite topic here on 2oceansvibe, but a car ending up in this position is not something you see everyday.

Apparently another car cleaned the Carlucci’s in town.

Not ideal.

Please be careful out there guys.

 

[thanks sam]

UPDATE FROM 2OV READER:

 

Hi Seth,

The two accidents happened about 20m from each other. The Renault hit the tree in front of the 4 Seasons (Flats not hotel) and another parked in Carlucci’s, taking out the concrete balls that “protects” the entrance. Sorry to the new management.

Check this picture I took:
