BMW M3 Ring Taxi Crashes as in an 8 Car Accident at the Ring

Over the weekend, the M3 Ring Taxi was part of an 8 car pile up on the ring. Luckily no one died although there is one person hospitalized.

I guess the warnings were too close to the accident site? If you see the track, there is a blind turn and the accident is in a low lying area. You can’t see crap with the armco and trees. I think that accident was pretty light considering how fast that taxi goes…probably over 100mph for most of the track.

The accident was caused by a driver who came into the “Bergwerk” section at too high a speed. The driver slammed on his brakes, slid, and crashed into the car in front of him. His car then continued to hit two other cars also in the area. Three cars trailing this scene managed to slow down in time to avoid the accident, but the BMW M3 Ring Taxi could not unfortunately. It crashed into one of the slowing cars in front of it and then crashed into the pile of cars in front.

The pile up resulted in over 100,000 euro total damage.
