When we hear the words Cars and Coffee, we think of very expensive rides owned by mature adults who respect and understand their highly capable machines. Large amounts of horsepower in the wrong hands can spell disaster in a matter of seconds. This was apparently the case for one lucky driver in Blackhawk, California, where the accident took place.
The vehicle seen in the video is a brand new BMW M4 coupe dressed in a Sakhir Orange Metallic paint job. Just as a reminder, the M4 is powered by a 3.0-liter TwinPower Turbo inline-6 that cranks out 431 horsepower, which appears to be a little bit too much for this new owner.
The video was captured by an attendee standing on the sidewalk where the entrance and exit was located. Spectators flock to the driveway to catch a glimpse of the automobiles moving, listen to their wonderful exhaust notes, and also catch some drivers showing off, like the owner of the new M4.
Many times, all across the country, videos like this pop up and go viral because of the irresponsibility and lack of driver skill, but mainly for entertainment. The driver should consider himself lucky, due to that fact that there was a pole located on the median that he missed and the oncoming traffic that went by a few seconds later. Had he left a little later, there could have been major damage done to the car.
The driver casually drives away in shame on the opposite side of the road after flying over the median.
