Shit thats really horrible, glad everyone is out safe.
On the up side it looks like BMW took the accident rather well! Gives me faith in mine.
Also Sting the firm for everything they've got!

At least they are fine regarding the fine it is likely that the company who employs him will get screwed for a claim for negligence and damages should/will be awarded. The dude driving is unlikely to be sued but because the Company has insurance then the courts are likely to award more.
