by Ancient Volvos are famous for their strength, but new video from Germany demonstrates that it is Ferraris that have the ability to destroy everything in their path and remain undamaged.
The incident happened near the Nürburgring, where a Ferrari F40 and a 1997 Volvo 850 T-5 met. If we usually see accidents due to the carelessness of drivers of cheap cars, this time the culprit was precisely the Ferrari driver.
He did not leave enough space on the side while passing the Volvo, which was waiting to enter a gas station. The impact was not strong, but it damaged the Volvo’s rear bumper and broke the exhaust pipe mount, causing it to fall off.
Surprisingly, the Ferrari was almost undamaged – only a scratch on the front fender is visible. However, restoring this car will cost much more than repairing the Volvo, which, due to its age, might be written off. We hope the owner can buy it back and restore it.
Although the driver of the Ferrari is at fault for the accident, who could have easily avoided it, the owner of the Volvo also did not contribute to safety. The gas station near the track is always overcrowded, and the video shows that the Volvo was positioned at a right angle to the road, as if trying to cut into the line at the last moment.
Insurance companies are always looking for a way to avoid payouts, and in this case, they might try to shift some of the responsibility onto the Volvo. Who, in your opinion, is to blame for this accident?
