Crashed MP4-12C in Seattle 4/2/2011!

I was driving on HY-99 Northbound at about 1PM wondering why traffic was so congested. To my surprise I saw 3 Seattle Police cars and 2 DOT trucks behind a wrong way facing Mclaren. It turns out the rear passenger wheel was separated from the car.
As unbelievable as this seems, at about 3:30PM, one of the software techs had it on a test drive and someone from the program came to my work and requested equipment to transport the car with only 3 wheels in their location. He also informed me that a Mclaren technician was dispatched immediately from overseas to tend to the car.

Wicked cool that I usually don't take that route, if I do, not at that time, I was able to see my 2nd favorite car aside from the Mclaren F1, and the tech approached me at my work some 5 miles away. Out of all the people in Seattle...

That is about all the info I have on it. I didn't have the time to snap photos but I'm sure someone else did.
