Video: Watch a brand new Ferrari 458 crash into a barrier

As the old saying goes, 'There are Ferrari owners and there are Ferrari drivers'. Clearly, this guy didn't know how to drive his brand new Ferrari.

As the old saying goes, ‘There are Ferrari owners and there are Ferrari drivers’. Clearly, this guy didn’t know how to drive his brand new Ferrari.

It’s one thing to own a €200,000 supercar, but it’s another thing to know how to drive it. According to reports, this incident, which saw a Ferrari 458 Spider crashing into a crash barrier on an Italian highway, is actually a tad shady.

Reports from the Italian paper la Repubblica say that the driver only bought the car that morning, and it seemed to vanish before the police could get to the scene to investigate. Seems a tad odd if you ask us…

So the next time you decide to drive your brand new Ferrari supercar on wet roads with the traction control off (because traction control is for girls) then make sure you take it handy. Otherwise, this might happen and you’ll look like a right tool…

Ouch…
