My friend's neighbour died in a Dune buggy accident while in

The article is in Italian but Google Translation allowed me to get some of the details...

From what I could understand, the man from Canada, who was visiting to get maried, had to convince the owner of the buggy to borrow it and he lost control on a corner and flipped.

Looks like he was not wearing a seatbelt, and was ejected from the buggy. So sad. The translated article sure goes a long way to imply how dangerous they think these types of cars are.
