Man Drives Bugatti Veyron Into Lake

The owner of the most expensive car in the world has been forced to write off his $1m Bugatti Veyron after crashing into a lagoon.

He told police he had dropped his mobile phone as he sped alongside the lagoon while taking his newly delivered car out for a test drive.

When he looked up from picking up the phone he was startled by a low flying pelican which cause him to swerve off the road.

House escaped unhurt from the wreckage but could do nothing to stop his car - one of only 15 in the US - from submerging in the water up to its door handles

Paignton Ice Skating for Cars

Shocking driving condtions in Paignton on the busiest shopping day of the year. The car is barely moving but the hill makes stopping impossible and both people in the front of the car decide to jump out?????

The couple were warned by neighbours not to venture out that day and they were the only people to attempt to drive on that road. There were numerous pedestrians around who could barely walk on the black ice so a car really stood no chance
