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

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.
