oh, the family that owns the M3, M5, and M6. I feel so bad for them driving like asshats and wrecking their cars....
I was doing 125 on the autobahn last year in an Audi wagon, went to make a pass (after multiple mirror-checks), and an M5 almost ran the fuck over me coming out of nowhere in the high 100s. At those speeds, they come up fast and it's up to the approaching driver to see traffic ahead going slower or expect a slower car to be making a pass (at 125!) and adjust accordingly.
Also, in Germany "other cars joining traffic" don't just go all left-lane like Americans do. The stay right. ALWAYS in my experience. It's against the law there to go left-lane unless passing, and it is enforced strictly. My guess is that the guy in the M5 just fucked up and is trying to lay the blame on another car. Driver ahead is never at fault....whether he "fled the scene" or not. There are plenty of retards going too fast on the autobahn (and like I said, I was running 120-140 from Munich to Berlin nonstop) that make it dangerous for cars that are going "pretty damn fast" like I was, lol.
186mph with a dog in the backseat. I guess stupidity comes at all income levels.Leave a comment:

Survived
Nuts!
"The German Autobahns are famous for being some of the few public roads in the world without blanket speed limits for cars. Nevertheless the overall road traffic safety of the German motorway system is comparable to that of other Western-European highways. But as proven this week, it doesn't take much to get into an accident, especially when you are driving very fast.
A new BMW M5 (F10) with the speed limiter removed was driving at top speed on the A81 between Tuningen and Villingen-Schwenningen (not far from the Swiss border). Due to another driver who joined the traffic and didn't noticed the speeding BMW approaching in his mirror, the driver of the M5 was forced to brake and swerve his car.
The M5 lost control, smashed into the median barrier, shot across the Autobahn, rolled over several times and came to a rest in the grass before catching fire. The driver of the car which didn't noticed the upcoming BMW fled the scene of the accident. The two sons of the crashed driver, who were driving a BMW M3 and M6, stopped and were able to help their father and passengers, and put out the fire with a fire extinguisher.
The 60-year-old driver, the 20-year-old passenger and a dog in the backseat were all quite badly injured and were hospitalized. Quite remarkable, considering the speed they were driving. This shows how safety of cars has been improved over the years. But as this crash proves, you always have to pay attention on the Autobahn. Accidents like this one will also fuel the debate on whether or not a general speed limit should be imposed."
