There are few maneuvers in driving which might be each as widespread and as hectic as exiting a parking spot subsequent to a low curb. And one Ferrari LaFerrari driver has confirmed why that’s, by damaging his automotive mere inches after taking off.
The video, posted to Fb by Supercar Advocates, opens on a decent closeup of a Ferrari LaFerrari because it’s being began and the motive force is placing on his seatbelt. He opens his window to talk to the cameraman in what appears like Chinese language (if anybody can translate, you possibly can inform us what they’re saying within the feedback beneath).
At any fee, they trade a couple of phrases and the motive force begins creeping ahead. Whereas nonetheless taking note of the individual behind the digital camera, the motive force begins driving ahead with a bit extra velocity.

One other video posted within the feedback reveals that the facet skirt panel is fairly effectively destroyed, having been punched via the place the automotive made contact with the impediment. Though the motive force may simply be blamed for not paying sufficient consideration as he was exiting the spot, I’m positive I’ve exited parking spots in a lot the identical method. I simply had the good thing about being too poor to personal a Ferrari and the great fortune to not run into something.
Regardless that it was a really low velocity accident, given the extent of the harm we guess that the proprietor of the LaFerrari should face a hefty restore invoice – which is to be anticipated, since we’re speaking a few limited-run Ferrari hypercar.
