This week in celebration of the Georgetown Metropolitan’s second anniversary, GM is counting down the five most popular articles from last year.
Today: Adorable Car Accident on 30th St.
On a lazy Thursday in the middle of June, GM hopped off the D2 and came across the scene above. It’s a tiny vintage Fiat 500 sitting in a flower bed. From what GM could gather from the witnesses, the empty car, which was parked up the street, had suddenly broken free and started careening down the block, finally jumping the curb and landing in the flower bed.
It all added up to the most adorable car accident GM has ever seen. Little did he realize the storm of comments that would entail.
The Fiat (owned by Georgetown antiques dealer Jean Pierre) was a fixture around the neighborhood before the accident, but for obvious reasons it disappeared afterwards. Thankfully for fans of tiny cars, the car showed up again recently as good as new. Now please park it with the wheels turned towards the curb!
