Straightline

Comedian Jerry Seinfeld escaped unhurt when he rolled his 1967 Fiat BTM sedan while taking it for a spin while in East Hampton, LI, NY. Apparently he lost the brakes as he was approaching an intersection. He tried the emergency brake with no success, and then swerved to keep the car from going into the intersection, and ended up flipping it.

Always the comedic pro, Seinfeld quipped:

"Because I know there are kids out there, I want to make sure they all know that driving without braking is not something I recommend, unless you have professional clown training or a comedy background, as I do. It is not something I plan to make a habit of."
