Actually, if you watch you can see that there are two different clips. He was going fast enough for the car to understeer into the wall. It all could have been avoided if they had not put a wall 20 feet from a corner.
Of course, he can't drive either, which doesn't help...

Judging from the pictures, the crash happened @ very fast speeds. and in HK roads are narrow and short (compare to US roads), you have to get up to at least 50 mph to turn any car into *that* status ...
I guess the moron who test drove it probably watch too much initialD

if the wall wasnt there, he could've just ramp into the sidewalk and kill someone.

Everytime I see that clip, I don't know whether to laugh or cry. You have to wonder what, if anything, was going through Griffin's mind at the time. It's not as if he was screaming around a corner at 100mph+... he just pulled out, turned around, and headed right for the barrier wall at a leisurely pace. And then, his sh*t-eating grin as he's standing there afterwards, knowing that at that moment, he's the undisputed world champion of stupidity. I wouldn't loan the man the keys to my riding mower after that little stunt.
Most wrecks are caused by a lapse of judgement. Very, very few can truly be considered completely unavoidable "acts of God".
