Biden was emerging from his Delaware campaign headquarters when the car ploughed into an SUV guarding his motorcade
President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden were rushed to safety by the Secret Service after a car suddenly ploughed into a parked SUV that was guarding the presidential motorcade.
Mr Biden was walking out of his campaign headquarters in Wilmington, Delaware, on Sunday night to his waiting armoured SUV when a silver copper sedan hit a US Secret Service vehicle that was closing off intersections for the president’s departure.
The sedan, which carried a Delaware licence plate, then tried to continue into a closed-off intersection, before Secret Service personnel surrounded the vehicle with their weapons drawn and instructed the driver to put his hands up.
Mr Biden was captured looking stunned and froze when he heard the loud bang close by.
… I never expected to say, but I hope he was just drunk. I mean, of all the car accidents you could possibly get into, this is pretty high on the shitty list.
Imagine if this was someone taking their driving test for the first time.
Driving tester: Ok proceed through this intersection.
Driver: But it looks closed, there’s SUVs parked blocking it.
Driving tester: Proceed through this intersection or you will be failed.
Driver: What am I supposed to do about the parked vehicles?
Driving tester: You had an opportunity to ask questions before we started. This is not a driving lesson, it is a driving test. Now proceed through the intersection and then look for a space to parallel park.
Driver: Slams into SUV
Driving tester: Scribbles notes
Driver: Now what? Those secret service agents don’t look very happy.
Driving tester: Proceed through the intersection.
Driver: !?
Secret service agents: Swarm
Driving tester: You’ve failed. Can’t even make it through an intersection without threatening the president.
Driver: What was I supposed to do you crazy asshole!?
Driving tester: How about slow to a stop and wait for the motorcade to pass instead of ramming a secret service SUV and trying to leave the scene of the accident because you need to get through the intersection? And you’re acting like I’m the crazy asshole…
Like a few weeks ago when a couple of people tried to car jack a secret service. Sounded like they didn’t know it was secret service, they just saw a fancy looking black SUV that they thought they could break into until a punch of guys with guns came running at them.
my fellow buffalo, how many guys are required to form a punch of guys?
Don’t know, but we can refer to them as a bowl.
