Idris Elba Escapes Injury in Car Crash in Finland

The Sun reported earlier this week that Idris Elba overturned his vehicle in Finland. Although he escapedinjury, he recalls the event with a leftover of shock and fear. “Iwasn’t going fast, the car just had a mind of its own when it hitthe bank,” he said. “I cut the corner and then we rolled.Suddenly it all came together.”

The black star was filming a racingdocumentary for BBC2. He had expressed before his lifetime love forfast driving and how he got his first car illegally when he was 14something his older look made it possible for him.
