I understand that Albert Camus died in 1960 when an auto in which he was riding crashed. Into WHAT did it crash, though?

The car skid off an icy January road and struck a tree with such force that it actually smashed into several pieces.

For more meaningless trivia, I recall reading in a car enthusiast magazine that the car was a rare and expensive Facel Vega FV3B (a French attempt to compete with the fashionable 2-door coupes of Aston Martin and Mercedes)... also, there was a theory circulated around 2010 that Camus may have been targeted for assassination by the KGB because of his anti-Soviet writings...

A milk float I think.

The car crashed into a tree.
