Default Idiot at my work TOTALS brand new viper (PICS)

So my dealership had (key word here) 1 of 4 special edition new 08 Vipers that was in So Cal.

Well a customer came in and wanted to buy it, so they were doing the paper work and they handed the keys to a porter and the salesmen to go get it filled up with gas, at this point the car had 5 miles on it.

On their way back from the gas station they got 1/8 mile away from the dealership and lost control, crashing into 4 parked cars.

Witnesses said they heard loud engines noises, like he was pegged full throttle and turned around to see the Viper crash into four parked cars.

The driver (the porter) said his foot slipped off the clutch and he lost control

But its obvious by the pictures that he was going well over 50mph down the 35mph narrow street. My guess, he got on it in first and then hard shifted into second, and if you have ever driven a Viper, you know how tail happy they are. Well enough explaining, on to the pics.

Here's the car a few weeks ago when we got it into the showroom.



At the scene of the crash



And the pics

Neither the porter or the salesmen in the passenger seat got fired... You believe that shit?

As far as who is paying for it, the owner of the dealership no doubt has insurance, so he pays a deductible and that's about it. Unless one of the owners of the parked cars decides to sew.

I can understand getting fired over that. But in no way, shape or form, should the lot guy have to pay for that. I can see the dealership making him pay the deductible. That's why dealerships and businesses have insurances... for that reason alone.
