A 2012 BMW M5 was traveling at a top speed (approximately 186mph/300kmh) when the driver lost control of the car as he braked and aggressively swerved to avoid another vehicle in the highway that was coming his way. The M5 struck the divider, bounced off and shot across the highway, where it flipped a couple of times on the grass at the side of the road.
The 60 year old driver, 20 year old passenger, and a dog were all seriously injured. Good thing they are all alive. The crash was so severe, as evidenced by the damage that the car endured. However, M5’s safety technology was so excellent that none of the passengers were instantly killed.
The vehicle which cut off the BMW M5 fled the scene immediately and did not even stop to check the condition of the car and its passengers.
BMW cars are very powerful, but they are the safest cars in the world as well. Please drive safely everyone.
