mercedes-palm-tree

I noticed this accident scene last Friday opposite Mr. Baker in Salmiya. There is a palm tree lying flat on the other side of the road. I’m assuming the Mercedes hit the tree before it skid to that position.

Although the tree was uprooted, the car had very little damage. It just shows that most of these palm trees aren’t firmly rooted into the ground. Seems to be a good thing … just in case you drive into them.
