Z4 crash BBC

Saw this on BBC just now, hope it's not someone from here? Horrible to see anyone die in a car crash, let alone someone in a Zed. :(

That is a real mess. :eek:

I'd worked out it was a BMW before I read the report, but only realised it was a Z4 when I saw this.

Very sad - my condolences to the driver's nearest and dearest.

I'm amazed that the passenger has "non life threatening injuries" looking at the photos.
