Nah, knowing him he was probably just trying to show off or something even more stupid.

I've seen some insane high speed crashes in my time, but this is beyong words. I'm surprised the 599 didn't erupt in flames. Good job on Ferarari for building a good car, any other car there would be nothing left. The main cabinet seems to be in good shape, sort of.

Seeing the video, I can't see any possible legitimate reason excusing that. I feel HORRIBLE for the people in the taxi, and if I was their family I'd be suing his family for everything he's got.
You know the taxi driver who was filming is thanking his lucky stars. His hesitation at leaving from the green light literally saved his life.
I've read that waiting a couple of seconds when a light turns green is the #1 thing you can do to avoid death on the roads - this is an extreme case obviously, but this kind of thing happens a lot.
