FBI Sued for Crashing Ferrari

Catchy title, right? Well it's true, the FBI is being sued by a Detroit insurer after an agent crashed a $750,000 Ferrari F50 into a tree! The lawsuit alleges that he dun goofed, real bad.

As for the Ferrari itself, it began its life in a dealership in Pennsylvania where it was stolen in September of 2003. The dealer submitted a claim for the stolen vehicle to their insurance company, who paid them their claim. Five years later in 2008, the vehicle was found in Kentucky and was held by the FBI as they investigated the case.
While in FBI possession, two mechanically-retarded special agents decided to take it for a drive. The Ferrari vehicle "fishtailed and slid sideways" within only a few seconds of leaving the warehouse where the vehicle was being stored," according to the lawsuit. Some people just can't handle a supercar, apparently.

After the crash, the insurer submitted a claim to the FBI for the cost of the Ferrari, and was denied on two separate occasions, hence the lawsuit.

    When people get hold of a super fast car they just can't handle it. It just feels too good. One of my friends got a M3 and crashed almost 5 times. He sold the car because he didn't want to risk his life lol

    Good to know that tax dollars are going towards buying FBI agents 750,000 ferraris. What is the point of that? Come on....

    Good for Ferrari to sue them. Maybe they gave them a discount or something?

    They probably just jumped in it and drove away without realizing a car like that isn't easy to drive. Reminds me of a lotus I saw once that jumped through a light that just turned green The dude driving it slammed on the breaks terrified. It was obvious he didn't know what he was driving.
