$4m supercar pile-up: drivers may be charged
Date March 20, 2013 - 9:57AM The most expensive car crash in history involved eight Ferraris, a Lamborghini and a Mercedes-Benz - and now the drivers look set to be charged over the accident. AFP - Police in Japan said Monday they want to charge 10 drivers over a $4 million, multi-car pileup involving eight Ferraris, one Lamborghini and a Mercedes-Benz. The chain-reaction smash in December 2011 occurred when a convoy of expensive sports cars were on a freeway in Shimonoseki in western Japan, said Yamaguchi prefectural police official Shinji Tanaka. The driver of the lead Ferrari lost control of his luxury ride and those behind the wheels of nine supercars and three other vehicles failed to apply their brakes in time. One car driving on the opposite carriageway was also affected. Advertisement The Sports Nippon newspaper said around $4 million worth of damage was done. Police sent the case against a 61-year-old man and nine others to prosecutors last Thursday on suspicion of violating traffic laws. The final decision on whether to charge the drivers rests with prosecutors. Police say 10 drivers, aged between 38 and 61, were exceeding the speed limit http://brisbanetimes.drive.com.au/mo...320-2gejj.html
