So nice of the tow truck operator to wash his hands in the mud before reaching in to turn the steering wheel...that just cracked me up

From Today's NY Times:
November 12, 2009, 1:34 pm Underwater, Literally, With a $2 Million Bugatti By RICHARD S. CHANG Eddie Griffin might finally be off the hook for the most ridiculous crash in a priceless supercar. On Wednesday, a man drove a Bugatti Veyron into a lagoon in Texas after avoiding a low-flying pelican. According to The Galveston County Daily News, the driver was checking out real estate in La Marque, Tex., when the pelican swooped into view: The man jerked the wheel, dropped his cellphone and the car’s front tire left the frontage road and entered a muddy patch, which foiled his attempt to maneuver away from the lagoon. The Veyron’s powerful engine gurgled like an outboard motor for about 15 minutes before it died. The man was uninjured, physically, though after drowning the Veyron, which is priced at around $2 million, his ego might be a little damaged. (Lawrence Ulrich reviewed the new Veyron in The New York Times this month.) Now Jalopnik has unearthed video of the Veyron being towed out of the water:

not the first one...
There was another one, many years ago. The story is as good: he was stopped at the Swiss border and asked to pay import tax. As an aswer the owner dropped the car into the lake.
