It's not the same thing, but physics are always in play right? Things like GRAVITY, you may have heard of it. So a pole that gets hit by a car or by a plane is still going to travel in the same direction as dictated by the laws of momentum. A force acts upon an item and it is carried in that direction. So the force can be a car or a plane. It's true the results are random.........but that is the point as well.
The law of momentum is not the only physical law that will affect the behavior of that pole. Two different poles hit by 2 different objects at 2 different speeds cannot be expected to react identically.

The pole couldn't have done that small localized damage to a vehicle traveling in the direction it was, and NOT cause some other kind of damage like crushing the hood or putting a severe dent in it.
Source, please.

So when you see differences in poles that have been hit by cars or knocked down some other way than a blow torch, you'll see that the damage to the poles is not consistent with something actually impacting it,
Your data shows that the damage is not consistent with a CAR hitting it, which I agree with.
