TAFKAG 70 Posted August 5, 2011 Almost a has Bean I just simply cannot picture him in a sports car. The image of Mr Bean in his clapped-out Mini is engraved far too deeply in my mind. Paramedics at the scene said his face was hideously disfigured, but that fortunately for Mr Atkinson the only injury suffered was to his shoulder.

Whitehouse 820 Posted July 27, 2013 Going fast in a T-Ford is not possible anyway but when you're going downhill and entering a bend, you need to be sure about the state of the wooden spokes... And in this case there was a massive failure, resulting in the death of a 51-year old woman. Unfortunately, that's not a headline from 1913, it's from something that happened today. A woman was killed and three others injured when the Ford Model T they were riding in crashed near Utah's Zion National Park.PUtah's Desert News reports that the 1915 Model T carrying four people pulled over to let traffic that had built up behind it pass on state Route 9 around 10:20 a.m. today. Investigators believe that as the driver tried to get the car back onto the pavement, he failed to negotiate the slope properly and the T's wooden tire spokes collapsed, causing it to overturn and eject all four occupants. P Karen Johnson, 51 of Minnesota, later died at a hospital, the newspaper reports. Among the injured were the driver, Johnson's son, and her 12-year-old granddaughter. They were not seriously injured. P Perhaps saddest of all, this crash occurred during a national Model T club that was meeting in Kanab with more than 200 owners in the area for the week. Needless to say, this is the last thing that any group of car enthusiasts wants to happen when they get together... Our condolences go out to these families and their friends.
