David and Victoria Beckham involved in a minor car accident

David Beckham and his wife Victoria were involved in a minor car accident late last week while visiting their home near the French Riviera. Both escaped unharmed. From the Daily Mail:

The couple, who were visiting their holiday home in Bargemon, near the French Riviera, had the accident on Friday just before the England star flew to Beijing to take part in the Olympics Closing Ceremony.

The pair were on their way to Nice airport to catch a plane to China, when Beckham reportedly crashed their black BMW into a wall, causing the windscreen to smash and extensive damage along the passenger side. (Source)

A solo car accident? You'd think an accident with David Beckham would involve him rear-ending somebody . . . presumably somebody with rock hard abs and lustrous hair. This is just one more reason why I hate France. An obnoxious couple like Victoria and David Beckham can get into a fender bender and walk away, while someone like Princess Diana loses her life. I'd challenge that whole god damn country to a duel . . . but they'd probably just surrender.
