There is footage on the site linked.

Car hits pretty immovable object and moves it. Amazed that the occupants survived. Must of been wel mullered to not see a bloody great tram.

Well I hope the passenger and child are OK.

As for the driver. Daresay PH won't appreciate my thoughts

Comments seem to put the car at 39mph as it travelled through the cycle box. No idea why the car was travelling so fast on that piece of road, never mind through a red light and straight into a tram.

No, the occupants survived because must *of* been is a crime against humanity and all free thinking people ...

I got the off the train at East Croydon around 10pm on Sunday, must have got the tram just before this one.

It's not really an accident so will the cars insurer be liable when the driver deliberately speeds through a red light?
