Bitterne Road West garden damaged in Southampton crash
https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news/24646218.bitterne-road-west-garden-leve...
3 cars crashed and at least one caught fire under a railway bridge on the A4126 Spring Road in Wolverhampton at 11.15am today. Although the article doesn't say as much, it looks like at least one car crashed into the bridge [street view].
Trains between Wolverhampton and Birmingham have been cancelled and a bus replacement service between Wolverhampton and Shrewsbury. National Rail are warning of problems until at least 5pm.

On the afternoon of 4 October the Star reports that "A stretch of hedgerow was engulfed with flames during a car fire" near Preston Brockhurst. Did someone's barbecue get out of control, with the poor car an innocent passer-by? Hmmmm...

Edit to add (Sunday): at 1.50pm on Saturday Police and Fire Service were called to Griffins Wood Close in Lightmoor, Telford where a car had reversed into a house. "Inspection carried out and advice given to occupier" but no word on whether the fuckwit driver was charged.
Man jailed over funeral home car crash murder bid
My takeaway from this is that he needs a better brief. This is the sort of sentence that someone should get when they use their car as a weapon but we all know that it doesn't happen. If he hadn't admitted it, I think he probably could have got away with a one year ban (for drink driving) and a suspended sentence (for careless driving).

Not quite a building, but a car (no driver mentioned) takes out a bus shelter
https://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news/24677719.bus-stop-near-thorn...
Note - this bus stop is adjacent to the (in)famous Leeds-Bradford cycle "super"highway, which is a whopping 75cm wide at this point.
Not so much a case of a "floating bus-stop", as a "flying through the air bus-stop"
