Probably blinded themselves with the glare off their hood. Totally deserved it for putting a chrome wrap on their car...

He told the dealer "Chrome Wheels" but the dealer heard "Chrome Body."

It looks like it could have been suicide (by the car.)

Advantage of the chrome wrap is, you can repair all that damage with a little aluminum tape from Home Depot.

Probably one of the same a-holes that were racing through Beverly Hills last week.

eyewitness accounts saw the driver blowing kisses at himself while he looked at his reflection in his hood right before the accident.
