Try Not To Cry As An Inattentive Driver Pushes A Ferrari 488 Into A Destructive Spin
Checking your mirrors before pulling off an overtake on a dual carriageway isn’t exactly a hard thing to do, but it’s absolutely vital. Because if you don’t, something like this might happen.
The video above - taken on the Seoul Chuncheon Expressway, South Korea - shows the moment an inattentive driver pulled out on a Ferrari 488, hitting it in just the right place to send it into a spin. The supercar’s momentum saw it smash into the vehicle in front of the camera car, before hitting a tunnel wall and then getting struck by the camera car itself. Ouch.
Fortunately, it looks like all the involved occupants are up and walking after the accident, seemingly without serious injury. How we’d like to be a fly on the wall during that conversation…

This is just another example of people not having the mandatory level of common sense to drive a car
Albeit the Ferrari driver did nothing wrong
Thats a really bad day! Common sense and awareness when driving escape some people. A simple check of the mirrors is all that was needef
dunno if camera car driver is mercedes/bmw/audi driver or just stupid
[DELETED]
He only wanted to go for a spin…
That guy should get charged with automobile homicide.
Give him the death penalty.
This also shows how useful dashcams are. With this evidence, the Ferrari driver should be able to force the other driver’s insurer to pay for everything, saving the Ferrari driver a fortune in any excess payment and in insurance cost next year.
Dashcams invade privacy. Streetlight-mounted cameras are better, and in some cases give a clearer view.
Eh, increased insurance costs could still happen. Even if an accident is 0% your fault, insurance companies increase your rates because you’re seen as “unlucky and therefore more of a risk for the company to insure”
Still tho. It hurts.
Seriously, if you are able to afford a car like that (unlike me), you should be careful. Some people would do anything to get their hands on a Ferrari and yet we have people who just crash them. Sigh
You do realize that the Ferrari driver did absolutely nothing wrong there. you wouldn’t have been able to do anything if you were in the Ferrari because who would expect that lady to merge into your quarter panel right then and there?
This is an example of someone who only read
Well i dont care
488s have no soul
458 all the way
Its clearly the camera car’s fault, but one could argue that the slow car in the fast (left) lane was partially to blame too, seeing as there were no cars in front or in the slow lane. But I don’t know how it works in S. Korea
From what I know, that rule doesn’t exist there
It definitely was the camera cars fault
idk how solid lines work in Korea but all blame is put on the camera car in US terms. Cant cross solid lines Mr. Mazda
Nope, full white line means no crossing what so ever. It’s two lanes completely separated, and crossing that line is an offense without a doubt.
NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOO
