盤點史上最貴的超級跑車事故

Even a minor fender bender can cost thousands of dollars to repair.
即便只是輕微碰撞,也要花個上千美元修理。

But what about repairing a totaled Ferrari or Bugatti?
那麼如果是修理一輛報廢的法拉利或是布加迪,又要多少錢呢?

The recent mega accident that claimed a baker's dozen of supercars in Japan along with reports of insurance fraud in the dramatic Bugatti Veyron crash from 2009 made us take an unfortunate trip down memory lane.
最近大量的超級跑車事故,包括在日本發生的13輛超級跑車連環撞車事故,還有一宗布加迪威龍的保險欺詐案,讓我們不得不回憶起那一連串倒黴的跑車事故。

Since money is the only qualification needed for purchasing a supercar, there are many drivers who are just out of their depth with a high horsepower ride.
想買跑車?有錢就行。但是有很多跑車司機還真的玩不轉他們那些大馬力的座駕。

And occasionally they demonstrate it very publicly.
他們偶爾也會在大衆面前表現一把他們的拙劣駕駛技術。
