*Speed isn't always the culprit. Because of their odd dimensions and miniscule ground clearance, supercars have always been vulnerable to ...objects in the road. While driving his yellow Ferrari Enzo for only the third time, Ali Haas, a 51-year-old plastic surgeon from Florida, ran over a spool of wire on the road....the low-slung Ferrari was knocked airborne, breaking its grip on the road and sending it skidding into a guardrail.
