Of all the cars this driver could have crashed, it had to be a 458, didn’t it?

But he didn’t just crash it. Oh no. He wrapped it around a tree.

The Johannesburg driver forgot how to drive his Ferrari 458 Spider on Eagle Canyon Estate, flying head first into an innocent tree.

It may have been an accident, but we’d also add it was a monumental cock-up.

The fact the prancing horse in question had temporary plates in the window also suggests it was a recent purchase – a pretty embarrassing turnout for the proud new owner.

Oh, and did we mention the speed limit of the road he was driving on was a whopping 20mph!

Clearly the acceleration was a little too much for him to handle.
