The car &#8212; one of only 400<br \/>\n      made &#8212; shattered, with its engine coming to rest on the highway and its<br \/>\n      wreckage scattered. <\/p>\n<p>      Sheriff&#8217;s investigators identified the owner as Stefan Ericksson, 44, of<br \/>\n      Bel Air, who escaped the wreck with only a cut lip. <\/p>\n<p>      &quot;For $1 million, you get a very good passenger-safety system, and<br \/>\n      apparently in this case it did work,&quot; said Sgt. Philip Brooks of the<br \/>\n      Los Angeles County Sheriff&#8217;s Department. <\/p>\n<p>      Authorities said Ericksson told them he was a passenger and the driver<br \/>\n      was a German acquaintance he knew only as Dietrich, who he said ran into<br \/>\n      the nearby hills. A three-hour search failed to turn up anyone, and officials<br \/>\n      said they were skeptical of the account. Only the driver&#8217;s side air bag<br \/>\n      deployed, Brooks said. <\/p>\n<p> from<a href=\"http:\/\/www.latimes.com\/news\/nationworld\/nation\/wire\/sns-ap-brf-ferrari-crash,1,2426386.story?coll=sns-ap-nation-headlines\"> the<br \/>\n    LA Times<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Actually, we think we know that guy Dietrich.
