    360 crash in DR

     This happened at about 2am saturday morning, I just returned from a weekend in the mountains so I couldn't post it any earlier. The driver died yesterday afternoon from severe internal bleeding and 7 broken ribs and other internal injuries. 

    The accident was a result of street racing, he tried to run a red light and lost control of the car as he tried to avoid traffic, he hit a light post sideways and the car literally broke in two. below are the links to the main article although there is not anymore information on what happened. Also here are the pictures of the car, they are a bit graphic as they were taken as they were trying to get the driver out of the car. 

    Also as a result of this the local authorities just started talks about new regulations to e put in place to prevent reckless driving. I've said it before on other threads that we basically have no enforcement of traffic laws people drive as they please and this is an example of that gone terribly wrong. 

    This is a reminder to all of us to drive safe and carefully no matter how much we love cars and speed and the thrill.

    As far as I know they are designed to break in two... Anyway, may RIP Smiley

    I think so too. Remember that Enzo in California a few years ago?

     Very sad indeed. I just hope that the lady survived.

    A super fast car is a lethal weapon in the wrong hands, unfortunately.

    I'm very surprised that pictures like the last one are allowed to be published by the media in DR!

     I can't even begin to explain to you how irreverent the media can be here some times, from bodies to actual gore pictures come up sometimes. Authorities can try to censor some things but it doesn't work.

    To be honest, I'm also sursprised to see pictures like this on rennteam...
    May the deceased rest in peace, and me his beloved ones remember him how he was, and not as how he appeared in his last moments on the internet.

    Mods, can the graphic pictures be removed please?

     The picture was graphic, but I think it wasn't disrespectful.

    However, one cannot be too careful with sensitive issues, I removed the picture and put the link to it instead.

    Thanks guys for removing the picture. I agree with Aaron that the picture might not have been disrespectful, however, if I were family of the deceased, I would not want pictures like these going around the globe either.

    Enmanuel, you did not offend me, no worries mate!
