First BRZ Collision?

I know this forum had the first documented FR-S collision a few weeks ago... Now out of Estonia, this may be the first BRZ?

People have this magical ability to do that... One tree in a whole field, and the person goes for that!

(With motorcycle riders, it's actually called target fixation. If you're headed towards a pole, and you don't take your eyes off it, you'll likely hit it.)

At this rate, we'll be saying goodbye to 1 BRZ every 2 months. It sucks, but I don't think it's an outlier.

On a positive side, it looks like there shouldn't have been too much harm to the driver. I'm curious what happened, because it looks like they went sideways into the tree yet the front looks like it hit something head-on. The crumpled hood looks earily similar to the FR-S we saw earlier.

By that I assume you mean they feel the need to crash it, right?

Yes these cars both die the same, and horribly at that. It is interesting, maybe turn offed TC hit some gravel and lost it. Thats the best I can come up with, but then again you cant see much. OBVIOUSLY hes not american.. or he would have been able to drive in a straight line
