BMW Sauber F1 team was testing yesterday an F1 car that has an experimental Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS).
When the test driver Christian Klien pulled into the pits in F1.07C after a test run at Jerez the mechanic who touched the car received an electric shock that knocked him off his feet to his back.
Luckily he didn’t get any serious injuries.
A brand new black Tesla Roadster got into an accident right after its owner had taken delivery of that electric supercar. Looking at the pictures we see that the Tesla has got a hit from 90s Toyota Camry to the rear and its front ended up beneath Mercedes C-Class.
According to Wired the scene was sedate with only one police car blocking the traffic. “No action, no drama — everyone was very mellow,”
Fiat 500 is a very stylish small citycar made in Italy. Audi Q7 is a luxurious SUV made in Germany.
Is big better or not? Not always, but usually size does matter when it comes to car crashes.
Here we have a crash test where Fiat 500 and Audi Q7 crash from the drivers side corner. Take a look at the video and decide yourself which is safer in a situation like this.
Prince Marcus Eberhard Edward of Anhalt, Duke of Saxony and Westphalia, Count of Askania crashed his Gemballa Mirage GT at the Paul Ricard racing circuit in France.
He is moslty known for his international tabledance club chain „Pure Platinum”. He owns different properties around the world and enjoys living as a jetsetter around the world.
Looking at the pictures and his face it seems that he is not too sad that he had crashed a car that costs well over a million dollars.
All we know that this accident happened in Qatar on the 15th when a 22-year old driver lost control of the Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR.
We don’t know did the driver survive. We hope for the best, but looking at the pictures it is hard to believe anyone would survive a crash like that.
Money should not be the issue as Qatar is a very rich oil country and it comes to us no surprise that 22-year old ones drive supercars that most of us can only dream of.
No information on what was the speed, what the car hit and did it explode(looking at the pictures it seems that it has exploded).
Dodge Ram 2500, pulling a new travel trailer, hit the corner of the Texas State Bank Drive-In on Tenaha Street, causing the complete awning to come to the ground.
Luckily, the driver of the Dodge, Mickey Miller, of Garrison and his 10 year old son were able to exit their vehicle uninjured.
It’s never fun calling dad after crashing his car - but when you’ve just wrecked his prized Ferrari you can bet you’re in for an earful.
A Melbourne man had to make that call on Saturday night after destroying the front end of his father’s Italian Stallion in a smash near Rod Laver Arena.
The front of the red sports car, which police said had been speeding, finished wrapped around a pole in the spectacular accident, which took place on Batman Avenue.
Aston Martin DBS used for filming in the latest James Bond flick, Quantum of Solace, ended up at the bottom of a lake in Italy after the driver, on route to the film set, lost control in rainy weather.
We now have video footage of the car after it was extracted by authorities, which you can view after the jump. There is no video of the accident itself as it did not happen during the filming. The driver did get injured and we hope he is back behind the next DBS to continue the filming.
The good news: he’s alive. The bad news: he’s a little busted up. John Force’s dragster (the one with the Driving Force tv show about him and his hawt drag racing daughters) went out of control at the O’Reilly NHRA Fall Nationals in Texas on Sunday. In the process of heading for the wall, he also took out Kenny Bernstein’s car before smacking the barrier. Berstein is fine, Force is also largely fine, suffering a broken wrist and ankle in the crash. As he was being stabilized and extricated from his car, Force was apparently more concerned with Bernstein’s fate, even though he was obviously aware of his own injuries. Force’s chassis broke, which seems to be what caused the collision. His daughter Ashley, also an NHRA drag racer, withdrew from the semifinals to be with her father at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas, TX. Our main question, after making sure he was okay, was the fate of the famously filthy Nomex suit - will he finally get a clean one?
Most people attending drag races expect to see cars accelerate to breakneck speeds in seconds. This time, show goers at a drag meet in Brisbane, Australia witnessed a high-speed crash. Amazingly the driver walked away with only a cut on his finger.
