    That's a shame. Hope nobody was injured (other than perhaps the ego of the driver ).

          Is it just me or do a lot of these supercar smashes seem to be happening in China lately?

          Mind you having driven there.......!! On the road the law is that the largest vehicle has the right of way which I imagine can lead to a few games of "chicken". Not as bad as India though where lorry drivers(often off their faces on opium) drive the wrong way up motorways and dual carriageways. Not just on the odd occassion either, you have to dodge them constantly and it just seems to be accepted!!

            The Top Gear India Roadtrip was the scaredest I've ever seen our three adventurers! :lol:

            I did not know about China's "might makes right" rule of right-of-way. That might explain the difficulty some drivers from that part of the world experience when they come here to California, where even the locals have trouble figuring out which vehicle is stopped 'to the right' of the other, and so has the right-of-way.

              I had to do a test and recognise road signs like this



              to obtain this, my Chinese driving permit


              I also had to have a health check and the car was tested.....no such tests required to drive in India, just bravery - or is that stupidity? It's a fine line!

                By the way, I'm planning to drive the Pan-American highway next year. Will have to catch up when I come through California.

                      Of course we will meet you when you come through Calfornia, Fiona!

                      BTW, you are probably one of the three women on the planet to have a flattering driver's license photo -- how ever did you swing that one? :lol:

                            ... it appears this fits into the category "oh no!".
