Woman sparks $1 million luxury car smash-up


This has got to be an insurer’s worst nightmare.
A female driver in Monaco drew quite a crowd when she was at the centre of one of the most expensive fender-benders you’ll ever see, involving more than $1 million worth of luxury cars.

The woman, who was driving a Bentley Azure worth around $380,000, sparked the costly smash-up after she hit a $95,000 Mercedes-Benz in a roundabout in front of the posh Place du Casino in Monte Carlo, the Daily Mail reports.
To make matters worse, the woman went on to hit three other pricey cars, including a Porsche 911 (priced at around $95,000), a Ferrari F430 ($270,000), and an Aston Martin Rapide ($220,000).

As you’d expect, the spectacular accident scene drew a throng of tourists and photo-snapping gawkers. And the offending driver had no choice but to mug for the cameras as her car’s doors were pinned shut.

The total damages are estimated to be around $65,000. The Ferrari, Porsche, and Aston Martin are said to require new front wings and bumpers, while the woman’s Bentley will need similar repairs, as well as a new door.

Yeah I saw that on Yahoo News lol.....

I think the problem is that women have a problem visulizing distance and measurements. Since ever since they were girls guys have been telling them that this >......................................................................................................................< is 12 inches!!!

 

[Yay Nicholas is here!]

Only the blonds belive that.

Oh boy, do i get banned for this?.

Hate to say it but it's true...a lot of women drivers are really really bad behind the wheel. It seems every time someone is totally oblivious to the people around them (if you're trying to make a left out of a parking lot, the light to the right of you is red and the cars are stopped right to the driveway you are sitting at and the next person drives right up to the bumper of the person in front of them and then sit there waiting for the light to change rather than stop farther back to let you make your turn) it turns out to be a woman. I've always thought that many of them have been self centered and probably grew up as "daddy's little princess" that they are unable to consider the other people around them esp if the other people are strangers. On the other hand, if you get stuck behind someone driving really really slow, someone who starts braking 1/2 a block before the light when it's still green....he's going to be an elderly man wearing a hat!
