[Mgs] E-type slams into traffic light

[Rick Lindsay]

I drove an e-type for years.  It is a beginner's
mistake with the e-type to underestimate the length of
the nose.  Its WAY further out there than it seems
from the driver's seat.  In fact, its far enough out
to clip a traffic light when you think you have ample
clearance!!!  Thus, I surmise that the driver was new
to the car - or just lost control. :-P
