That is one well smashed up Ferrari.

That's pretty gefukt alright. You sure it's a Ferrari?
DDBug
Jeez - how fast would he have to have been going for that to happen?

Woman driver by any chance?
Timmeh
183.7kph.

Yep, that's a Ferrari alright, or was.

Unlikely to be a woman. Women can't judge space or distance, but most fatal accidents are caused by men because their weakness is that they drive too fast.

Also, few women are daft enough to waste money on a Ferrari in the first place.

Must have been a "sporty" driver.

Not a woman driver.

Poor tree.

You can tell it's a holiday and everyone is relaxed, I was hoping for at least a few nibbles.

"nibble, nibble, nibble"

Happy now?

Must be the topic title, doesn`t really apeal to the fairer sex. Or maybe they are just not rising to the bait...

trees are hard bastards

I´m a tree hugger myself - one shouldn´t drive into them - it hurts the tree!
Yeti
Not as much as it hurts the Ferrari.
cinzia
I suppose somebody has to point out that while a tree is a living thing, a Ferrari is not?

I think the driver should be posthumously charged with arborcide.
Allershausen
You obviously know nothing about Ferraris, trees are ten a penny, you just plant a seed and they grow, they're everywhere. Me, I'm sad over the death of a Ferrari, I've got a tree, I'll probably never have a Ferrari. sad.gif
cinzia
Well, charge him with Ferraricide, too, then. rolleyes.gif

Let's see: suicide, arborcide, and Ferraricide. Ought to send him down the river for about 3 months in Germany.
Yeti
Tree is still alive so charging him with arborcide is hardly going to work, but that Ferrari, she gone baby gone.

A Volkswagen will get you from point A to point B just like the Ferrari, but just not as fast.

You can also use sandpaper instead of toilet paper.

Lavender Rain or Golden Shower - both will get you wet and smelly.

Like I've got a tree, I've got a Volkswagen too, it's not the same as a Ferrari.

As is the owner. You never know, if the owner felt the same way about his Ferrari as you do about your fantasy Ferrari, he might would rather have died than lose the car. laugh.gif

This just happened only blocks away from my home in CA. Check out the Corvette: it's literally disintegrated.

moral of the story: NEVER buy your teenager a fast car.

very sad.

I never mentioned a fantasy Ferrari. I want one of these:

And never let your teenaged daughter ride with a boy in a fast car.
mlovett
genau. Apparently she was VERY bright at school. Well, not bright enough... she should have stayed out of that car. sad.gif
HellesAngel
This guy is not the only poor unfortunate idiot who can't drive but owns a fast car: www.wreckedexotics.com

Edit: Going fast in an American designed car on real roads is asking for trouble because real roads have bends and American cars can't steer.

Pfft, never buy a fuckwit child a car at all, of any kind. Sad my arse, it's a modern means of natural selection. Previously the weak and stupid would get eaten by animals, now they wrap themselves around immovable objects. The world is a better place.
mlovett
Well that's a little harsh... but uh, yeah, what he said. My parents never bought me ANYthing.

Apparently drugs/alcohol were not involved. just poor judgment.

Reminds me of my first time in Germany, to meet the people who would later become my in-laws... and my then boyfriend going 240 kph on the Autobahn like a TOTAL DORK just to test out the rental car and apparently try to impress me. Had I had my Yankee firearms with me, they would have been pointed straight at him. Instead I told him something like my parents did not bring me into this world to have some dumbass Kraut like you take me out of it.

He slowed down. LOL

So if he hadn't slowed down you'd have shot him? ohmy.gif
Yeti
Of course, you have to terminate a situation like that with extreme prejudice.

Besides, no trees on the Autobahn, safe as houses.

No one doesn't, it's their job. I sympathise with the insurance company, the tree and the ghost of Mary Whitehouse because modern society is devoid of moral backbone wink.gif

yes one does, as well as anyone who tried to help. pretty horrible

No one doesn't. As I said, this is their job and I know of no emergency response worker who is all pansy about picking up the pieces. After two weeks on the job, it takes more than a burnt-out car and a charcoal body to freak them.
