Jerry Seinfeld flips his car to avoid serious accident

jerry seinfeldLegendary comedian Jerry Seinfeld got more than he bargained for last night while test driving his new 1967 fiat. During his drive he realized that his breaks weren’t working, so he decided to take action to avoid getting into a major accident in a busy intersection.

According to the police, Seinfeld was approaching a very busy Montauk Highway when he realized that his breaks were not working, so instead of plowing into the highway and possibly hitting other motorists, the comedian slammed on his emergency and jerked the wheel hard to the right, resulting in his car flipping at least once before resting on its side.

Flipping a car is never considered a “minor accident” in my book, but the police stated that had Jerry driven onto Montauk Highway that the results could have been “catastrophic”.

But don’t worry. Our beloved creator of Seinfeld was not injured in the accident, and actually was driven back home following the accident by another car. Police will not charge him with leaving the scene of a crime since there was no property damage other than his own car.

Definitely some slick driving from the funny man!
