Apparently a Gumball spokesperson said the pair were doing the speed limit (40mph) and the car pulled out infront of them.
Now, although I don't know the full story I can't quite believe that.

It's possible. There are some people that do the speed limits at some points during the gumball. And we've only seen one picutre of the damage so you don't know what other roadside items there may have been to mangle the cars etc. The porsche doesn't look too bad in the picture yet the Golf does. It's again lack of information.ModifiedMadness wrote:Apparently a Gumball spokesperson said the pair were doing the speed limit (40mph) and the car pulled out infront of them.

If this is true, well...
Also, the guy who runs the Gumball is now blaming the elderly couple for the crash:

Pompous douchebags.
