Bike Destroyer

Saw a Saabaru last week with a mangled roof rack Q/R-style bike tray.  The picture from my keitai didn’t really come out that good, so I outlined the two trays in yellow so y’all can see what’s going on.  Essentially, put a bike on the tray, drive, and run the handlebars of the bike smack dab into the header of your garage door!  The fork bends back, but before it breaks, it presses the frame backward and downward, forcing the rear wheel to bend the thick, extruded aluminum tray (before both the frame and wheel also break).  The bike definitely didn’t survive this encounter!  I wonder which poor bike store employee had to hear the, “I was just riding along…” story ?
