A Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG crashes at 200 km/h

Three factors came together in this accident: a Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG (twin-turbo V12 engine and 630 CV), a Russian man and alcohol. Before going on, it should be noted that there were no fatalities and that the only thing damaged was the structure of the luxurious car.

It happened last night in Saint Petersburg, Russia, when the driver of the vehicle was returning from a wedding with a group of friends and plenty of liters of alcohol in his veins. Travelling at around 200 km/h, the Mercedes lost stability, skidded and began to roll. It is ironic that the tragedy ended right in front of a local Lada dealership.

The occupants were able to get out of the wrecked vehicle on their own and patiently wait for the emergency services to arrive.

The Mercedes’s license plate was removed immediately and there is no information about the identity of the driver, which suggests that he is someone “important”, such as a politician or a criminal. I don’t know, in Russia the difference between the two is slight. The only thing known for certain is that they were very lucky.
