5th gear did a piece on those barriers and the fact they start and finnish in a ramp/launch pad, may have seen the replacement crumple zone type around the place?

Lets all hope it's taught him a valuable lesson and he won't ever drive like a complete Knob head ever again.

The fact he's alive is not the only piece of good luck on show here.
It's very very lucky that his car did'nt end up making contact with another motor.

Because he was in the wrong and was the one endangering other motorists lives.......It's 100% guaranteed that if he did hit another car that the other driver and passangers would have been killed while he lives to fight another day  :-/

Too much testosterone and not enough brains  >:(

The guy is lucky to be alive and if he hadn't hit the bridge pillar he would have got quite a high score for the pirouette as well.  :y

I just love the way people jump on the 'young bloke with no idea/ car too powerfull/ showing off' bandwagon.  ::)

How do YOU know it wasn't a mechanical issue that caused the crash??

You don't so don't make assumptions

The end of the day the guy is lucky to be alive and there is obviously a serious safety issue with that type of crash barrier,
