Correct , not stolen , just careless , lost control and ended up in the only pole around. Maybe "lucky" he did as he might have gone straight across that traffic divider into incoming traffic for a far worse outcome.

Yes , it's repairable , I'm sure we will see this one back on the road .It's a small vette community around here and some players are already lined up for purchase . I have a good straight frame hanging in my shed that may end up under it . It's been hit before, it was actually driven through the owners shed back wall and repaired . so all that repair will disappear now !!!

That's because Vettes have a secret navigation device built-in that allows them to go into "homing" mode and find the target (pole).
