And while we\u2019ve all seen plenty of videos of expensive supercars getting crunched by careless drivers at the wheel of cars that cost 100th as much, in this case it\u2019s primarily the Ferrari driver that\u2019s responsible for the smash.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/03\/lewis-hamilton-wants-to-design-a-new-ferrari-f40-with-a-stick-shift\/\">Lewis Hamilton Wants To Design A New Ferrari F40 With A Stick Shift<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>He fails to leave enough \u2013 or any \u2013 room on his passenger side as he steers around the Volvo that\u2019s waiting to enter a gas station and so stationary at the time of the accident. The impact isn\u2019t massive, but it cracks the Volvo\u2019s rear bumper and pushes the exhaust tailpipe sufficiently sideways that it snaps the rear mount, causing the pipe to drop to the floor.<\/p>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"taboola-mid-article-thumbnails-organic\"><\/div>\n<p>Incredibly, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/ferrari\/\">Ferrari<\/a> appears to escape the altercation relatively undamaged. We can see a large scuff on the front clamshell just above the side repeater, but the the panel itself remains intact. Even so, we imagine the bill to put the Ferrari back into tip-top shape will be far higher than the one needed to fix the Volvo, which will probably be totalled due to its age. Hopefully if is written off the 850 T-5\u2019s owner can buy it back and repair it.<\/p>\n<p>Although it\u2019s the Ferrari driver\u2019s fault for striking the Volvo, something he could have easily avoided because he had room to spare on his driver\u2019s side, the 850\u2019s owner didn\u2019t exactly help matters. The gas station outside the Ring is incredibly busy and, as the video on the Gumbal YouTube channel shows, he\u2019s sticking out at a 90-degree angle to the road as he waits to enter, as if he\u2019s decided to get gas at the last minute and is trying to cut the line.<\/p>\n<p>Insurance companies love an opportunity to wriggle out of paying by pushing the blame elsewhere, and we can imagine one faced with repairing a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2025\/01\/this-ferrari-f40-could-be-perfect-but-youll-need-millions-to-buy-it\/\">Ferrari F40<\/a> might be keen to throw at least some pain the Volvo\u2019s way.
