e53 4.8is accident brooklyn

Just saw this via a friend. 2 people killed last night in high speed crash
Crazy! Maxima slams into the 4.8 leading the Maxima to wrap a telephone pole.

I'm guilty of speeding on public roads, this is a much needed reality check (for me at least)
drive safe guys.

That was a lot of kinetic energy lost in a very short distance... WOW.

Thank god the X5 only got hit in the engine... a full on side hit would have been devastating.

The driver and the passenger in the BMW were taken to Kings County Hospital with minor injuries, police say.

Poor 4.8iS - obviously totaled after this...

the bmw might be totaled but the crush zones in the front end did there job (absorb impact) to protect the occupants in the x5 .

thats sad news to hear , looks like speeding was a factor feel sorry for the families right now. when I was younger I thought I was indestructable back in the day (speeding with my radar detector and getting away with it) . but now i have slowed down (grown up I guess).

It proves, again, that the X5 was built with high safety standard.
