I don't see any skid marks or damage to the brick wall...besides charr marks. Looks to me like a fire started and the guy pulled over and it burnt to the ground.

Look at the front end damage, and the wall in the top of the frame.

I saw that this happened in Kuwait I reckon.. The roads in Kuwait,Dubai are like the streets in Las Vegas. They always seems very slippery. I have always found cars on those types of roads to slip and slide very easily. Glad the guy is ok.
