Default Women injured in Ferrari crash

TWO women have suffered leg and spinal injuries after an out-of-control Ferrari crashed in Sydney's west.

Police say the late-model sports car was being driven by a 25-year-old man east along The Boulevard, in Lidcombe, when it crashed into a parked Toyota Vienta.

It continued skidding after hitting the car and crashed into a brick wall.

"Two women, believed to have been standing near the Vienta at the time of the crash, were seriously injured as a result of the incident," a police statement said.

They were taken to hospital with leg and spinal injuries. The Ferrari driver was being questioned by police.

His car was extensively damaged.

I hate these stories!

The 599 is so fast it's just lethal if you play in a residential area.

I see a lot of people taking short cuts and speeding in areas to save a few minutes.

Remember the days of speed bumps and metal horses to deter craziness.

That looks more like a 612 than a 599...


I'm not sick, but I am not well either

That looks more like a 612.

Default 599

like i always say , not to be harsh , but the truth is, some people have absolutely no business driving a Ferrari , period. Never have driven a 599 ,ill get behind the wheel, first time, and drive the shit out of it, without ever crashing, while doing 1st to 2nd to 3rd gear burnouts around corners every chance i got !!! lol,that poor car !!! PS,.that appears to be a Scaglietti for sure gentlemen

Yep, it's a 612. Late model Ferrari and Lambos in black are the preferred ride for young Lebanese drug dealers in Sydney these days :sigh:

I presume you're not talking about yourself but the mindset of the person who drove this one?
