Word of caution: Some readers may find the images in the following video disturbing
A horrible accident that took place on Saturday afternoon (October 19, 2013) during a Hungarian rally in the village of Városlőd when a Volkswagen Golf Mk2 racer lost control of his car and plowed a group of spectators who were watching the vehicles fly by at speed, has left six people injured, one seriously.
According to media reports from Hungary, one elderly victim is in coma having suffered severe abdominal, chest, spine and head injuries.
The Golf was reportedly going around 150km/h (93 mph) when the accident happened, though; this is something that has not been confirmed. Police are still investigating the circumstances of the accident.
We’ve also attached a video report from the scene of the accident. We’d be much obliged if any of Hungarian readers can translate and share the most important parts of the interview in the comments.
