On the court as on the road, Rafael Nadal is a man who respects the rules. Except on that day in July 2006 when he hit a concrete pole with his car. This is what he said during an interview with a Spanish magazine specializing in road safety, Traffic and Road Safety.
“I like to drive, in the normal way, to get to places where I need the car. Not much more. I like to focus on driving and following the rules. One time I didn’t, over 15 years ago, and had a little mishap [en juillet 2006, Rafa était un conducteur novice et s’est écrasé contre un poteau en béton. Heureusement, plus de peur que de mal]. Otherwise, I consider myself a normal driver, abiding by the rules. »
Since this accident, which could have been more serious and potentially changed his career as a tennis player, Rafa has shown great caution on the road.
