Unreal Crash - 535i

[baileydog]

Lets take a poll to see how fast you figure these boys got the ol' 535i going.

And I thought Diane's Mercedes was banged up........

indeed a horrific accident

good lord, 3 dead? and the woman said she saw two cars speeding towards her, as in a street race? judging by that picture they were way over 125mph. there was a crash like that by my house recently, maybe 2 months ago? 5 kids under the age of 18 and their camp counselor, all in one car, all dead. there was nothing left of the car, it took the investigators something like 5 hours to determine how many bodies there were, by counting the teeth. and the counselor had had her license taken away for a ticket for 106mph in a 55. **** like that is sobering. im gonna take a moment and realize how lucky i am to have made it through all the retarded stunts i've pulled in my (almost) 20 years. bmw's might be safe as hell, but when you get 4000lbs going 100+mph, you dont stand a chance.

Hmmm 5 inside... and notice they popped the boot to see if there were any more inside the car, I bet it was still locked and the latch opened it without fuss.

Geek hilarity aside, a sobering lesson to us all. I'd say 90-150mph, unless the car was rusted. I can't see it breaking in half that easily... though both ends are kinda heavy. I wonder where the survivors were- in the back and ejected ,or the driver and passenger?

I am going to slap myself for saying this and bringing up the acrimonious topic of street racing again but


do these pictures make the point of why street racing is not a good idea or what?

I do think that point has been driven home in numerous threads, but yeah. Fully agreed.
