The driver of a car that plowed into a parked Secret Service van that was part of President Joe Biden’s security detail on Sunday has been charged with drunken driving.

Police in Wilmington, Delaware, have charged the motorist – a 46-year-old Wilmington man – with driving a vehicle under the influence and with inattentive driving.

The police department’s spokesperson said investigators determined the crash was an “accidental collision.”

The crash happened just after 8 p.m. Sunday after the president and first lady Jill Biden left the president’s campaign headquarters in Wilmington.

Jill Biden had entered the waiting presidential vehicle, while President Biden paused to answer a question from reporters. Moments later, a silver copper sedan with Delaware plates rammed into an SUV that was being used to seal off the area during the president’s visit.

Reporters traveling with the president heard a loud bang and saw Biden standing outside his vehicle with a surprised expression on his face.

The driver of the car then tried to continue forward into the closed-off intersection. Agents quickly cornered the sedan and pulled their weapons on the driver, who held up his hands.

Biden was quickly ushered into his vehicle. His motorcade left the scene at 8:09 p.m. and arrived back at his residence 11 minutes later.

Neither the president nor the first lady was injured.

Tragic Accident in Colorado Springs: Five Injured When SUV Rolls Over During Reckless Stunt

We’ve all made questionable decisions in our youth—speeding, pushing limits, and late-night studying—but some actions have far graver consequences. Such was the case in Colorado Springs last Saturday night, where a reckless stunt involving an SUV ended in disaster. An attempt to perform donuts in a parking lot resulted in the SUV rolling over and injuring five people, with their conditions reported as life-threatening.

The incident unfolded when a group of individuals gathered at a shopping center parking lot, intending to show off their driving skills. They climbed into a GMC Terrain and decided to hang out of the SUV’s windows while the driver executed donuts. The situation took a turn for the worse when the driver lost control, causing the vehicle to flip and crush those who were outside the windows. Emergency responders rushed the injured to the hospital, while the driver, charged with reckless driving, was arrested but not seriously hurt. The gravity of the incident could further change if any of the passengers succumb to their injuries.

Performing stunts like donuts in a parking lot is dangerous, but doing so with a front-wheel-drive SUV makes it even riskier. The choices made by this group led to severe consequences, highlighting the importance of responsible behavior behind the wheel.
