Default Video of Bugatti Veyron crashing into the lake, THE ACTUAL V

Some guy's amaze me, apparently this star (un-named) in Texas dropped his cell phone when a bird hit his car and while trying to retrieve it off the floor drove 1 of 6 Bugatti's in the U.S. in a salt water lake. ugghhh some guy's just don't deserve what they have. and some how a couple of guy's happened to be filming the car driving at the time-what are the odds ?

Looks like they were able to double back and film the guys coming out of the vehicle as well...

Pretty sure there are more than "6" Veyron's in the U.S. There are two sitting in a dealership down the street. And they are not the same one's that were there a few months ago.

There must be 3 or 4 in San Diego alone.

I heard that too, but there's got to be more than 6 of them in the us. The big overpuffed dealer at the end of my street used to have a couple blue ones, & after, had two red ones. Last time I drove by, one had been sold (& was been replaced by a Lamborghini Revonton thing). ?

Can you say, "intentionally drove into a lake to collect $1.5M in insurance"... It looked too smooth to me, an ideal area to dive into the drink, between guardrails with minimal chance of injury. If it was really because of his cell phone, there would have been some attempt to correct. He would have hit the brakes or tried to steer out of it. It looks like he just coasted right into the lake. I bet he's upset that somebody actually got it on video...

In the dictionary under the word "douchebag", instead of the hygiene product, there is a picture of that guy.

Look closer, his Veyron came with all-terrain snorkel package. He knows what he's doing...

Maybe only 6 were SOLD in the US. The rest are sitting in dealerships. I think one is in the Petersen Auto Museum in LA.

guy that drove the car into the water also owns a business that salvages exotic cars. hmmm.....

LUFKIN — Police have revealed the identity of the owner and driver of a million-dollar French sports car that he accidentally veered into a salt marsh.
The Lufkin Daily News reports police records in La Marque identified 34-year-old Andy House of Lufkin as the driver of the 2006 Bugatti Veyron EB. Police said the car veered off an Interstate 45 frontage road and into the marsh Wednesday afternoon, becoming half-submerged in the brine. House wasn't injured.
The newspaper reports House owns a company that restores damaged luxury cars for resale. A 2006 Bugatti Veyron was recently offered for sale in Jonesboro, Ark., for $1.25 million.
A call and e-mail to House from the Associated Press weren't returned on Friday. However, tow truck operator Gilbert Harrison told the Houston Chronicle that, after the accident, House was “getting so many calls that he finally stopped answering his phone.” Among the callers were California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and several other celebrities.

The newspaper reports House owns a company that restores damaged luxury cars for resale.

It sounds like he has a few loose screws. No, I'm not suggesting he is crazy. I mean maybe he just finished restoring it and he forgot to tighten some of the screws.

Funny thing about teh cell phone, seeing how its illeagal to use a cell phone without a hands free device in most states now, wouldnt that be something that violates most insurance policies as well???
