A Lamborghini and Ferrari Crashed into Each Other in Fort Worth on Sunday



The chances of a Lamborghini and Ferrari crashing into one another on a random stretch of Fort Worth highway have to be remote. But it appears the accident yesterday, at I-30 and Henderson, suggest it wasn't exactly random. Judging from reports on DFW Scanner, both cars appear to have come from an exotic-sports-car-rental company, DFW Drive Your Dream. Waiting on a call back to confirm, but they certainly have the inventory and, no doubt, astronomical insurance premiums.

Here's a close-up of the damage to the Ferrari:

in the UK when our trunk roads had no speed limit. An E-Type raced a Gordon Keeble over the Hammersmith Flyover in west London. One of the cars took off and its suspension apparently collapsed on landing whilst hitting the other car which rolled about 15 times in flames.

when there were only 2 autos in the entire state of Kansas (?). Apparently, they collided.

simply having the money for something does not mean that you are any good at using it.


Dick Cheney and a million dollar heart, for instance.
