But, it’s not what you think…

From the UK’s Daily Mail reporter “Daily Mail”, with plenty of photos for those of you who savor schadenfreude:

“The £2.5million motorway smash involving 8 Ferraris, 3 Mercedes, a Lamborghini, a Skyline and a humble Toyota Prius (which was in the wrong place at the wrong time)”

I’m guessing it resulted from a perfect combination of speed, testosterone-fueled-male-machismo, improper use of cup holders, the road perhaps being slightly wet… oh, and speed.

Well, I learned a long time ago that when life gives you lemons, make lemonade whiskey sours. So, let’s try to look on the bright side:

• The blonde (no, not this one) responsible for crashing her Bentley into a Mercedes, a Ferrari, a Porsche and an Aston Martin can now breathe a little easier.

• Italy’s economy finally gets a long-needed boost.

• Thankfully, the crash did not involve the ultrarare, 1987 Buick Grand National GNX reportedly rescued from the crusher by former U.S. House Speaker Nancy “Visa Stock“ Pelosi during the “Cash-for-Clunkers” program.

• The Japanese can now add “Middle-Aged Male Narcissists” to their list of property-destroying monsters.
