Street racer crashes Ferrari 458 into tree in unplanned “pit stop”

One street racer's high speed racing career ended rather abruptly in Arnhem on Friday after he crashed his red Ferrari 458 into a tree. According to the police, they received reports of a single car collision on Johan de Wittlaan in Arnhem on Friday after receiving numerous reports of street racers causing lots of noise with their loud engines and squealing tires on Thursday. At the scene the police found quite a mess. The Ferrari stood sideways across the road and parts of red car were scattered everywhere. The driver escaped unharmed. "We still gave the driver a tip to in future not wait to long for a pit stop for full wet tires", the Arnhem-Noord police write on their Facebook page.
