> mechanical failure of my car

That's scary. What was the failure if you don't mind me asking?

Front passenger control arm. Basically the suspension collapsed and planted that corner of the car into the road.

Had the same happen to me when I was younger and drove a BMW 525i. It happened in a corner where the car basically just spun and did a 360. I managed to limp home as the car was sort of drivable still.
