2012 M5 survives 300km/h crash

A 60-year old driver was travelling at approximately 300km/h when he lost control of his 2012 BMW M5 (F10 M5) to avoid another motorist whom joined the highway aggressively. The car bound off the divider and rolled several times before ending up on the grass alongside the Autobahn. The driver, his 20 year old passenger and a dog survived despite sustaining serious injuries. The car whom caused the accident, did not stop and fled the scene.

Despite severe damage to the car, the famed quality and technology excellence of German engineering can be witnessed by M5's safety technology and the fact that that no one were instantly killed.  The M6 and M3 on the scene belong to the sons of the M5, and one of the sons, prevented further damage by extinguishing the engine once seeing smoke.

Think of your loved ones, stay safe!
