F40 crash in Germany

Jabba's news of Frank Mountain's crashed Enzo reminded me of something terrible I saw on Ferrarichat the other day. Last wednesday a drunk German F40 driver crashed his car. He suffered only light injuries, so he could get out of the car by himself. He then fought with the police who impounded the car and took his driving license. What a fucking idiot! Not only for being drunk and for fighting with the cops, but for destroying such a great car as well.

For those who can read German, here's the official statement to the press by the police.
Köln (ots) - Schwere Verletzungen zog sich am Mittwochmittag
(15.12) ein Ferrarifahrer (35) in Köln-Porz-Enden bei einem
Verkehrsunfall zu. Der 35-Jährige befuhr gegen 16.50 Uhr die
Charlottenstraße in Fahrtrichtung Luisenstraße. Vermutlich auf Grund
überhöhter Geschwindigkeit geriet sein Fahrzeug ins Schleudern und
prallte gegen eine Toreinfahrt einer dort ansässigen Firma. Obwohl
sein Wagen durch die große Wucht des Aufpralls völlig demoliert
wurde, konnte sich der Fahrer selbstständig aus seinem Auto befreien.
Der unter Alkohol stehende Mann wurde nach seiner Erstversorgung zur
stationären Behandlung in ein Krankenhaus gebracht. Dort wurde ihm
eine Blutprobe entnommen. Sein Führerschein und der Ferrari wurde
sichergestellt. An dem Wagen entstand ein Sachschaden von ungefähr
150.000,- Euro.

Für den Zeitraum der Unfallaufnahme blieb die Charlottenstraße für
beide Fahrtrichtungen gesperrt. (ms)

And this is the sad result...

Indeed! Besides, the weather in Cologne at this time of the year isn't exactly weather suitable for driving an F40 regardless of whether your sober or not.

Looking at the condition of the car the guy was lucky to survive
