HHR

  • 3,340 miles
A 2009 Chevrolet HHR impacted a telephone pole in the middle of a parking lot. The damage was to the front left fender and headlamp. No part of the pole was visible, due to the width of the A-pillar and door frame and the angle of the a pillar (nearly vertical). Only the noise and vibrations during the impact alerted the driver to what was occurring, even though the driver was looking directly toward the pole.
