Was it an accident? Often in such cases it's DUI. In such cases, it's just lucky if no one innocent gets killed.
There was a man who deliberately drove his car into a tram in Melbourne at a very high rate of speed (maybe 180 km/h) to CTB. (Or is that catch the tram?) Despite the tram weighing about 40 tonnes, the driver, who was the only one on board at the time, sustained minor injuries.
