I've seen Z's get knocked into buildings when I hit them in my vehicle. 1 time, an incandescent husk corpse ended up on the other side of a bank window from me w/out breaking the window. The eldritch power is strong w/ motorized vehicles.

The scenario only places you correctly inside a vehicle if and only if the road mayhem map special is generated in the middle of nowhere with no other buildings around.

If there is a roofed building near the road mayhem you will be placed there. However, if you search your immediate surroundings you will always see a road mayhem close by (which is where you should have spawned).

Seems to be an issue with how the game decides where to place you.

Okay, I've learned some things trying to work on this. My current thinking for a fix is that a new map special is needed copying from road that has a spawn zone and that is tied to the Car Crash sloc and scenario. Ideally it should be outside of the city so it doesn't mess up any city spawns, which are necessarily very dense and almost all of them don't have a spawn zone designated yet. I'll try and get that together when I have time.
