The same end result could easily be acheived on a freeway/motorway with a light poll. (from memory that half a Ferrari is from an overpass on a freeway??)
Looks like the main drag thru town actually. It's a dual carriageway street with 2-3 lanes each way.
Was there about 2 months ago
speed limit was 70 or 60 IIRC.
