Car looks pretty repairable. New bumper, headlight, hood, windshield.. doesn't look like structural damage.
Anyone else have any additional photos of said incident? | Quote:

yes | Hmm to me it looks like the bar entered his left head light and the force the car moving foward the bar lifted up into the windshield, tearing open the hood. Well that i what I got from just 2 pictures.

school wont take responsibilty ! i gaurentee that.
My wife slipped on ice in the parking lot last year and was hurt and she went to complain to the school and they said not their problem talk to security.
she talked to security and they said not their problem talk to impark
Impark controls the parking lots and gates, so we then had to call and bitch at impark for not properly looking after the lots and salting the walk ways, but they said we had no proof that they did anything wrong so we had no case.
So needless to say, its just gunna get run around for the liabilty and the school will deny anything and everything and throw all the blame on Impark, and icbc to take care of everything !

theres no bump in the road there, it is smooth.
that gate at natural stance is MUCH lower, about the height of the headlights/radsupport/hood.
because he drove through it... it got pushed up to the highest point of the car which happened to be the top of the firewall/dashboard.
once the car was pulled back and out the gate sagged back down to its original height and i bet you the car's suspension was quite compressed down as well from the force of that angle on the lower bar.
i didn't witness it or was i driving, but i wouldn't be suprised if the gate alone pushing the car down to the ground and wedgeing into the firewall, is what actually stopped the car, not the driver hitting the brakes.

I mean it should be BCIT's job to ensure their contractors do their work properly. I guarantee it's something that could be challenged in court if the STI guy wanted to take it that far...

Just send a letter to BCIT, Impark, and mother nature and their lawyers will be fighting each other over who is responsible. He could just let ICBC take care of it and they will sue whoever is responsible but he will most likely lose out on a bunch of money.
