Thoughts from the Hanshin Expressway No. 3 Kobe Route Porsche Panamera Flame Accident.

Porsche Panamera Edition 970
Porsche News

Shocking news...

Since yesterday, I have been on a family vacation in Kyushu by Panamera, and when I arrived at the inn and casually watched the evening news, a shocking story jumped out at me.

A Porsche caught fire near Amagasaki on the Hanshin Expressway No. 3 Kobe Line. Truck overturned.

Eeeeeeee(((HUGS)))!

This area near Amagasaki on the Hanshin Expressway No. 3 Kobe Line is a road my husband takes every day on his way to work. I drove it just a few days ago. Moreover, the burning Porsche is a 970 Panamera.

According to news reports, the driver of the truck, who was in his 70s, unfortunately passed away, and it was unclear as to the injuries or safety of the Panamera's driver and passengers.

Do not be overconfident.

The area near Amagasaki on the Hanshin Expressway isThere are no particularly sharp curves, and the three lanes continue with good visibility.I sometimes wondered if the Panamera was going too fast... but there are quite a few undercover police cars in this area, so I think most cars are usually traveling at 100 km/h or less.

Whether the Panamera suddenly tried to overtake, or whether the truck drove too hard... we don't know the circumstances, but the fact is that it was a tragic traffic accident that resulted in a fatality.

When an accident like this happens on a road I usually drive well, it makes me think that I am not a stranger.

I usually drive a Panamera myself.In city driving, the Panamera's capabilities are not at all apparent."I often feel like I'm going too fast. So, on the freeway, we often feel comfortable driving fast, and sometimes the meter shows a surprising value just by stepping on the gas pedal a little bit.

Also, Porsche has great stability and the steering is fun to drive, so it is easy to become overconfident in one's driving skills.

But the most important thing to keep in mind when driving a car is, first and foremost, "safe driving. Driving fun comes next. I vowed once again to be a safe driver.

     Good evening Mina, this is shimoyannjp.

     This is really very disappointing news. I came here today with the intention of posting here about the leaked images of the New992, but when I saw the latest article, I felt very disappointed and indescribable.

     As you can see from the photo, PANAMERA's front front end is wrecked and on fire. The truck, on the other hand, tipped over? I wonder what kind of speed he was driving. I am so sorry.

     And I was reminded that I should be careful, too.

      Yes, I know, with all the recent Porsche launches and new car related news.
      I am sorry to hear this news.

      There was a truck many times larger than the Porsche that overturned, and even though the Panamera was on fire, the doors seemed to open, and
      I feel all sorts of mixed feelings.

      You really have to be careful.

    The rear wing is hopped up.
    If you didn't raise it manually, does that mean you were doing more than double the speed limit?

      I believe the rear wing on the 970 Panamera comes out at 90 km/h.
      If the truck is that badly burned and wrecked, it seems certain that it was going very fast.
      Some witnesses on Twitter say it was going about 200 km/h, although I don't know if that's true.

     A passenger car hit a truck from behind, causing it to overturn and kill the driver.
    It is hard to imagine an accident like this, but the "Porsche" did something that it didn't need to do!
    The perpetrator is a doctor in his 50s. The perpetrator is a doctor in his 50s.
     A stupid accident with a car you worked for and bought with the weight of human life on your shoulders.
    I have to remind myself that I should not wake them up. I'll take the moped.
    There was also an incredible young doctor who agitated the patient, causing him to fall and run away.
     In this day and age, luxury car drivers are aware that they will be looked at with curiosity and envy.
    It should be done, and it would be a good inconvenience for other Porsche riders.
    Above all, the annoyance of a manufacturer offering a fun car. For those who have been injured.
    I'm sorry, but as a sports car enthusiast in the same profession, I just can't resist.
    Without being bitter...
     As mentioned in the other article, the performance of the Kuruma is based on your technique and
    Safety first, not overconfidence, is the best. I reconfirmed it.

      HeartOfGlass.
      You are really right.
      Luxury Porsches make for great news fodder.
      And moreover, when a doctor who saves people's lives....
      I know a lot of Porsche owners who are doctors.
      Everyone is driving in moderation.
      Because you love sports cars, you go to the race track to demonstrate the performance of your car.

      I'm not going to let my image as a Porsche be any worse than it already is.
      I, for one, am reminded once again to drive safely!

    But still, can't we do something more about the accident reporting?
    The driver who rear-ended the car seems to have been arrested without a license, and the fact that it was a Porsche does not seem to have anything to do with the cause of the accident.
    In any case, if you are going to sensationalize the accident, it doesn't matter how soon you report it, just make sure you give a clear account of the circumstances that led to the accident.

      You're right...it's like you really want to use the proper noun "Porsche"....
      The important thing is for us to know the causes and triggers of accidents so that we can drive safely and prevent accidents like this from happening.
      We would like them to report calmly and flatly, wouldn't we?
