Collision Question

(I looked through the Errata and searched for 6e collisions, didn't find the answer. Also viewed some of the SJG YouTube videos, didn't see the situation arise.]

P15 - "The moment a car touches a heavy obstacle or wall, a collision has occurred."

1. If a car is < 1 car length away from a wall or heavy obstacle, does it collide when slid forward on the Turning Key, or does a collision occur after a turn is made (which could potentially prevent the collision)?

2. Assuming a collision is checked for after a turn, the car may still end up overlapping the wall or heavy obstacle at the end of its regular movement point, but P15 - "The moment a car touches a heavy obstacle, the car must stop moving. How is this done in this case? (Positioning the car in its normal final spot, then moving straight backwards until just touching a wall or heavy obstacle, and in the case of a wall, then repositioning per P16 Pushing Walls??)
