Shortly after making the turn, the BMW suddenly emitted a large cloud of white smoke for unknown reasons.
The smoke heavily obscured visibility for the camcar driver, who slowed down to safely navigate through it.

Unfortunately, the BMW’s vanishing act likely had a much more anticlimactic explanation: it simply sped off ahead while the camcar was carefully navigating through the smoke.
