New car news

Bugatti Veyron

13 November 2009 - 11:00

Video: Water Bug’

It is Friday the 13th. It is damp (well, it is if you’re in the UK). It’s still over a month until you can look forward to getting embarrassingly drunk at the office Christmas party.

But cheer up: at least your day is going better than this gent’s day.

This gent drives a Bugatti Veyron. Or drove a Bugatti Veyron, rather. Along Interstate 45 in Texas, to be precise, when he was distracted by a low-flying pelican (excuses, excuses), which caused him to veer off the road… and into a lagoon.

A salt-water lagoon. Lovely corrosive water, sloshing through all the expensive mechanical bits of your million-quid, 1000bhp hypercar. Gutted.

The anonymous driver – well, wouldn’t you want to stay anonymous if you’d just binned your Veyron into a lake? – escaped unhurt, which is more than we can say for the poor Bugatti…

That really sucks for him, I used to live off of 45 and while both sides of the road have water, it is a good sixty or seventy feet. He must have been flying.

This hurts. If he wanted to trick the insurance company, I hope they don't pay. At all. Ok, maybe for a contract killer. And if it really was an accident, maybe he should drive a Hilux instead?

I live in Houston and I pass by there every weekend when I go to the beach. IT'S A STRAIGHT ROAD WITH NO TURNS IN IT AT ALL. I find it impossible to be able to do something like that because of a low swooping pelican or because you need to pick your phone off the floor. It's almost completely obvious that he did this for insurance money.

Muppet indeed! If his story is actually true it makes the whole situation even worse. Reasoning: If he had said, "i was going 155 mph when I hit some oil, spun and dropped 'er in the drink" I would actualy accept that. But the thought that you would even notice a Pelican while driving a car such as that...well let's just say it must have been inherited money....and his parents were related before they were married.

Damn it all, America, this is why you can't have nice things. You are hereby banned, by order, from owning any nice cars. You are restricted to cars with a top speed under 70mph (because you're unsafe even at that speed, but I recognise that you have a lot of distance to travel), they shall not be comfortable, they shall not be well built, they shall not be priced well, they shall be made with aging technology (especially with regards to suspension), and they shall be ugly. Basically stick to your own poorly made cars, America, and stop ruining ours. I mean, really, if you can afford a Veyron, then you can afford a hands free kit, if you're not a bulbous, inbred, moronic American, that is.

From what I understand, the owner/driver of this Bugatti owned a exotic car salvage business; and this was his personal car. He also owned the Enzo Eddie Murphy crashed a few years ago. I'm assuming the owner is probably an 80 year old man that fell asleep or some jackass on his cell phone. After being stationed here in California this week and noting so many stupid drivers (they will literally try and ram you), I'm fearing for the safety of my new VW Gti I just bought before driving here.

I live about 30 miles from where this happened. This idiot was talking on his cell phone when the "pelican" distracted him. If you have $1 million to spend on a car, how about $15 to spend on a bluetooth earpiece for hands free cellphone usage? Does one have to be dumb to own a fine car???

I was wondering when you guys'd get ahold of this. I can only imagine how the call to his insurance company went. If you listen, you can hear the agent crying.

You can tell he's not British. He stuck around and admitted what had happened. Any Brit would have called a cab, waited a couple of hours and reported it nicked. They've got a lot to learn. Have read though, that the Veyron is worth more in scrap than it costs to buy...it's 'artificially inexpensive'.

as i was playing this, a lady in my office came in. apparently, her son knows this guy. she showed me a photo of him with the car. seems the guy had this less than a month and was on his mobile when the car crashed. maybe bugatti should run an IQ check before they sell one. owns a bugatti but not a hands free? what an idiot!
