Default IS-F Driver suffers horrific crash
Not sure if Jeremy Harris is on this site but he just survived an insane crash in his IS-F. Happy that he just made it out alive with a few scratches, bruises and broken bones.

I saw this on Facebook. Incredible he survived, especially with so few injuries.

Holy Fin Sh it!!! That's crazy!!!!!! Glad he's okay!, what happen? Did he hit a tree? Looks like the car split down the middle and just disintegrated in the process.

Fell asleep at the wheel.

Doesn't look to be a single salvageable part on that poor thing. Wow. Luck for him to escape with minor wounds!

Wow, looks like he fell asleep at 140mph. I'm kind of reluctant to adopt the new tech in my wife's new car, but this makes me more inclined to do so. It has the lane keep assist and driver alertness monitor. Reportedly, it shakes the wheel and sounds chimes if it senses inactivity behind the wheel.

It appears as though the structure around the driver wasn't deformed too badly. Glad to hear humans involved were relatively uninjured.

That's divine intervention to walk away from that. I know people that had far less serious crashes that didn't make it. Amazing.

Looks as if he had a passenger up front or back, they would not have made it. Very fortunate to have that amount of damage and still be relatively okay.

The driver claims he fell asleep, but it sure looks like high speeds were involved. I wasn't at the crash nor am I an expert, but if you look at his Instagram there are several videos of him racing..one where speeds were 120+. We've all done stupid things I'm sure, but there is a time and place for everything. Be safe everyone.

Possibly...but I'm sure 95%+ of F owners have been at or above 120+ mph before... doesn't mean or warrant an accident.
Glad he made it out with minor injuries. Definitely amazing.
