"I've never seen such a thing," highway patrol lieutenant Eiichiro Kamitani told AFP news agency. "Ferraris rarely travel in such large numbers."

    "Police say they believe the accident, which took
    place on Sunday, happened when the driver of
    one of the Ferraris tried to change lanes and hit
    the crash barrier."

    WTF! Who was driving, Richard Hammond?
