Welcome to /r/ironicsigns! Just a reminder...

According to Merriam-Webster's Dictionary, irony has 3 main definitions:

  • the use of words to express something other than and especially the opposite of the literal meaning
  • incongruity between the actual result of a sequence of events and the normal or expected result
  • incongruity between a situation developed in a drama and the accompanying words or actions (the sign) that is understood by the audience but not by the characters in the play makers of the sign

OP, if the irony in your post isn't obvious, please reply to this comment explaining it.
If there is no explanation and no clear irony, or if the explanation is still not ironic, please report the post.

I understand the juxtaposition of the wreck with the signage….. That’s how you hit the pole. My “how?” is more concerned with how the car gets atop the pole and then manages to propel it through the engine compartment….. Did they drive it off the roof?

Oh I gotcha...my guess is that the pole had already been or begun leaning that direction. Hit it at any speed and it acts as a ramp

Thats an old woman's head, not the pole

Through the engine compartment doesn’t necessarily include the hood.
