I have been leaning toward this being operator error for a while now. The pictures say a lot.

One 'expert' on the radio said that because the cars are so close together, it probably wasn't going 80mph. But it still could have been going faster than 30mph

I think it was WAY less than 80 mph, for inertia and momentum should have done FAR greater damage than what is seen.
