Earlier this year, tragedy struck when a Porsche driver reportedly driving at 200km/h on a wet road crashed into a parked car in Greece, killing four people, including a 33-year-old woman and her three-year-old child.
The driver of the Porsche, reportedly George Vakakis, 24, the son of Greek businessman and owner of children’s toy shop Jumbo, crashed into a car that was legally parked at a rest area on a highway.
The 41-year-old driver of the parked car had gone to the restroom, leaving his wife and child waiting in the car.
