James May accident

James May crashed a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VIII earlier this year while filming in Norway, resulting in a hospital visit. He broke a rib, but he went back to filming the next day.

It was discovered that May’s brakes failed, and although he attempted to turn the car to avoid hitting a wall, he was unable to do so because he was traveling at a high rate of speed.

In the onboard camera, you can see May being thrown around in his seat as various objects fly around the cabin as the right side of the car nearly completely hits the wall.
