Default $2M Bugatti crashed into lake
The Galveston County Daily News

Quote:
Police on Friday identified a Lufkin man who accidentally drove a $2 million Bugatti Veyron, a rare automobile that is perhaps the world’s fastest, into a saltwater lagoon.

Andy Lee House, 34, owner of Performance Auto Sales, told The Daily News on Wednesday that a low-flying pelican distracted him, causing him to jerk the steering wheel a bit — and he then dropped his cell phone.

The crash, however, was captured by someone filming the car as it traveled on the northbound frontage road of Interstate 45 about 3 p.m. Wednesday.

The man filming was traveling north on I-45. No pelican was visible in the video, which shows the car veering from the road and splashing in the lagoon.

how typical, one can spend that much on a car and can't even put in a damn hands free system... they deserve it.

OMG! I think he will be totally busted for insurance fraud. He waits until he passes the peninsula to "veer" off the road, which just conveniently happens to have a smooth dropoff to the water. Maybe he needed some quick money so he decided to crash the Veyron. What dumbfuck luck that someone had a video camera at just the wrong time. That'll be a $1.5m lesson he never forgets.

I dunno what's worse: taking a Bugatti swimming or not recognizing a FRIGGIN BUGATTI VEYRON!

You'd think the guy would've had the self respect to edit that part out
