im still trying to play this accident out in my head and it's not working out... I don't get why the Ford looks like it has absolutely zero damage done to it. It looks like if u pushed the car off the lancer it would be like nothing ever happened

If you look closely at the first pic, the rear bumper of the Escape has suffered damage on the left side. If you look at the second picture closely, you can see that the left rear wheel of the Escape has been shoved forward a couple of inches.
Here's the only scenario that makes sense to me. Theoretically, the Escape was stopping quickly so that the driver could make an illegal left turn across the double yellow line to stop at the look-out point. By braking quickly, load transfer made the front end squat and the rear end rise.
The Lancer didn't see the situation until the last second, and may have nailed the brakes trying to avoid the inevitable. If the Lancer was equipped with ABS, it wouldn't lay down rubber until it was almost stopped. Load transfer would have made the nose dive down, and with the Escape almost at a complete stop with it's *** in the air (so to speak), the wedge shape of the Lancer's nose allowed it to drive under the Escape.
Sorry to ruin your fun in regards to theories of "divine intervention".
