Bolt has around 6 BMWs in Jamaica. They are all custom as well, including an M5 and X6M.....let's hope he doesn't crash those too!

They actually let this clown do M3 testing? Give him a smart car and call it a day! One accident in one of those and he won't be able to wreck another M3! Geez!

"Deputy Commissioner of Police Glenmore Hinds yesterday said three-time Olympic champion Usain Bolt will be criminally charged if investigations suggest that he is at fault..."

Also, fellow sprint star Asafa Powell was with him, but in a different vehicle, which begs the question, street racing with his on track competitor?

Stop blaming Bolt. It's clearly the M3's fault. You don't hear reports of him crashing a Toyota Prius.

...after much restraint, I'll post this (as a Jamaican):
driving on those roads with a car like this is waaaay more than most of you on this forum can handle...
so until you do, try to keep the "no talent/ poor judgement" arguments and excuses to make idotic remarks at-bay.
remember his Top Gear appearance?

...and besides its not like its a 1M... m3's are easy to come-by (again.. after restraint).

given the circumstances,... i'm sure there was some form of intoxication involved, which makes it pretty much unacceptable.

Perhaps a car control clinic should be on his short list of "things to do".

Some of us are not native citizens of our forum listed countries and were born and have driven in our respective home countries with higher rates of road deaths than Jamaica. A country's road accident history does not excuse Usain Bolt's actions, if he is indeed at fault.

you live in oregon.... have you driven in foreign countries? If Jamacia is even half as bad as some foreign countries (India, Singapore, Thailand, Bangladesh) id say he's a pretty good driver.

Lohan on the other hand.....

so you don't know if it was his fault but your going to judge him anyway?...

like i said b4 there are even people on this forum let alone, total m3 owners, that have crashed more than once. Why is someone famous held to a higher standard?
