Involved in CoD1 - MW2 apparently for anybody wondering like me

On December 21, 2025, Zampella died when the 2026 Ferrari 296 GTB he was driving veered off the road and struck a concrete barrier upon exiting a tunnel on the Angeles Crest Highway in the San Gabriel Mountains, north of Los Angeles, with the vehicle then catching fire.

Bonus carbrain in his wiki article, sadly the car he was driving just veered off the road. Cars really do get the cop treatment

After watching the crash: why the fuck was there not an absorption barrier there? I feel like probs would've been alive if there was something to absorb the shock.

Even a normal speed collision with that barrier would fuck pretty much anyone up.

CW: fatal car crash with fire involved

That barrier is to stop falling rocks ending up on the road.

Guy was driving like an idiot, most likely to hear his exhaust sound in the tunnel. FAFO I guess. It's the murdered passenger I feel bad for.

Yeah falling rocks makes more sense. Surprised with a complete lack of signage in that area though. Guess that's what happens when you go driving in Narnia.
