A very strange accident involving a yellow Corvette C6 and two more cars just took place in Norwood, Massachusetts. A witness told Boston’s NewsCenter5 that the person responsible for the accident is an unnamed woman who “races cars for a living”.
And what did this female racing(?) driver do, we hear you ask? Well, according to an eyewitness account, the woman in the Corvette stopped at a Chevrolet dealership in Norwood on Route 1 looking for a faster set of wheels. The dealer didn’t have anything to offer her so she went over to a nearby dealership to test drive a Ferrari.
And here’s where the story gets a bit hazy. The witness told reporters that “something happened at the Ferrari dealership” causing the woman to flip out and then race off in her Corvette only to lose control moments after and hit a pole before landing upside down.
The police said that the woman hit two other cars during the crash. The woman in the Corvette along with one person from one of the other vehicles involved in the crash were injured and taken to the hospital.
Update:
While the Boston Channel reported that the woman siting behind the wheel of the Corvette was a race car driver (citing an unnamed witness as the source), Carscoop reader Johnny H. tipped us off that she’s actually a ballroom dancer. We haven’t yet fully verified the claim, but we did confirm that the young lady quoted by our reader resides in Massachusetts and does own a yellow Corvette C6. In any case, we hope that she fully recovers from her injuries.
