Can the word "capsize" be used for cars? [closed]

Is it possible to use the word capsize for cars? As an example,

The car has been capsized and hit the wall.

Solution 1:

The definition of capsize refers to boats:

OED

VERB

[NO OBJECT] 1 (Of a boat) be overturned in the water:

The word picture of capsize is sink by the head:

Etymonline.com

1780 (transitive); 1792 (intransitive), a nautical word of obscure origin,

perhaps (as Skeat suggests) from Spanish capuzar "to sink by the head,"

from cabo "head," from Latin caput (see capitulum).

For sense, compare French chavirer "to capsize, upset," faire capot "capsize;" Provençal cap virar "to turn the head." Related: Capsized; capsizing.

You might be able to use capsize metaphorically, but there are probably simpler ways to draw an explicit word picture:
