Talk about a bad day at work, right? Imagine being the Audi salesperson riding in the passenger seat of this all-new A7 Sportback, when your client suddenly loses control at high speed and all hell breaks loose.
The crash took place on December 5, 2019 in Saint Petersburg, Russia, and reportedly nobody lost their life – even though a total of 15 cars were damaged by the out of control high-speed German projectile.
According to the description of the video, the test driver in question was a 25-year old individual: “A massive accident in which 15 cars were damaged occurred at about 10 a.m. on the Vyborg highway. The Audi A7 car, taken for a test drive, under the control of a 25-year-old driver, flew into the dividing strip while moving, demolished the fence, knocked down a traffic light and rushed on, not slowing down and clinging to passing cars. Miraculously, no one died in this accident.”

After the video was posted, someone with the user name Hiren Thanki stated the following in the comments section: “This was a girl who took Audi A7 for a test drive. She was going too fast and lost control. There were no casualties. Both driver and Audi worker are injured.”
As far as the cammer was concerned, everything seemed to happen very quickly. As the motorist pulls up to the junction, he’s quickly faced with a fast-approaching vehicle that can be seen swerving violently before mounting the central divider and plowing into a sign post and a traffic light.
Thankfully when the two cars made contact, it wasn’t over a large enough area so as to slow down the Audi’s momentum by any considerable margin – although that can be both good and bad, depending on the situation.
