there was a reason posted up a while ago, i cant remember off hand but there are a lot of vids of that happening, i think it was a sensor that got overloaded or something

Hmm, maybe the forward motion of the car + the stress from the restraining force triggered the sensor?

Could've been worse. At least it didn't happen while actually driving at that speed
