A woman has been left in a critical condition after crashing her Audi TT S in Johannesburg, South Africa.

A CCTV camera near the scene managed to record the disastrous crash. In the clip (below), the Audi sports car can be seen turning onto Rivonia Road at approximately the 17-second mark and appears to be out of control.

A few moments later, the TTS can be seen flying through the air before smashing into a number of signs and coming to a rest against a wall.

Local paramedics arrived on the scene shortly after and discovered the woman, believed to be in her 20s, lying behind the vehicle with life-threatening injuries. She was taken to the Charlotte Maxeke Hospital in a critical condition.

Footage of the car after the crash gives an idea of how brutal it was. Both the engine and transmission have been torn from the car and the Audi is now nothing more than a mangled mess. It is remarkable that the driver survived the impact.
