Greetings from the Critique Club!
Initial impression: Too much foreground, too little car.
Technical: Looks like a handheld shot. Nothing wrong with that, but if you see this car every day, you may be able to see more interesting angles to shoot from, with or without a tripod. DOF could be deeper, shutter a little slower (aka hint: tripod!) PP good, not overdone, helps the colour pop.
Artistic: Not bad, but could be so much better. The wreckage should be dominant and here it looks dangerously close to being an afterthought. Even just shooting from a squatting position, and shooting slightly up, could have added some interesting persepective. If your tripod won't let you get close to the ground, take a chance...hold your camera on the ground, aim it up, and shoot blind. See what you got, adjust accordingly, try again.
Overall: I can see what you want to get, but you have to take more risks. Change your pov - get on your tummy, your side, your back...concentrate on filling the frame a bit more with the subject. And never hurts to ask permission to go in and shoot, just ask nicely and smile sweetly. :-)
Hope this helps!
