Very sad. There were two different white M5s I use to always see around in Tysons or on 267 and chatted at stop lights with both drivers before. Both with modified exhaust.

These events are always a reminder that these cars need to be respected as its easy for them to quickly get away from you.

Stay safe out there people.

Can your seatbelt snap in these types of accidents? News article noted occupant was ejected, but then again, the roof came off. I would imagine the guy not hurt critically mostly stayed in his seat with his belt on.

1 Occupant ejected - likely no seat belt
driver died - likely due to blunt force

I knew Sami Ullah. A very nice guy. Just wasn't his day.

Inna Lillahi wa inna ilaihi raji'un

May his soul rest in peace.
