Somebody explain this to me

The car was left there for well over 20 years, and in that time a street lamp grew up through its engine and hood.

The phenomenon is seen more often with trees and older cars, but as cities expand and cars encroach on the street lamp’s home, this will become more and more common. It’s bad for both the car and the street lamp, as the car will obviously become immobile and the street lamp itself may exhibit stunted growth or a disproportionate bulb. The lamp seen above has a bloated fixture but only shines at 150 lux, in contrast to a healthy street lamp’s 500.
