Poor design. It cantilevers out too far and the supports are
substandard. That canopy should have held up much better than that -
the trailer was barely damaged. Fortunately, no one else was under it
at the time.

it just wasn't designed for side impact. It was designed to resist
other forces, mainly in that configuration wind.

Well, then.. It was designed without much foresight. Do you think the
result would have been different if the guy hit the post.. And who
would design something like that to sit in a parking lot and not
assume it might get bumped by a moving vehicle.. idiots, engineers,
useless Should have been designed by a technition...
