There was a Brera down here that was almost split in two after a collision with a concrete traffic barrier. The driver (only traveler) walked away unharmed save for some minor bruises. Speed unknown but I will say definitively that the only thing that could be salvaged was the rear disc brakes... Even the block was nearly torn in half...

I have a photo somewhere. I'll try and find it. A friend of mine on the police force sent me a copy.

Here's a 159 that tried to get on a Tram as the driver was a little over the limit.
