I think it's probably something else as it would be obscured by the instrument binnacle from the front wouldn't it?

RHD. What might appear to be a steering wheel on the left is actually a crack in the windscreen. In my former life, it wouldn't be the first time that I'd gone to something like that where fence rails/lamp-posts etc had gone straight through the occupants. It certainly looks like someone had a very lucky escape. I hope so.

Don't think so - there looks to be a sizeable crease in the roof; all the same,and as stated, very very lucky if no-one was injured

 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
