Police have asked anyone who witnessed the accident or who has relevant information to come forward to assist in piecing together the events leading up to the collision.

As the damaged vehicle was removed and the scene cleared, traffic returned to normal in the area. However, the strange sight of a car stuck on a pole left many bystanders talking, serving as a reminder of how quickly routine driving can turn into something unexpected.
