Tracy Morgan gets in car accident after driving off dealership in $2M Bugatti

San Jose Mercury News (CA)

June 05-- Jun. 5--Tracy Morgan's road woes continue.

The comedian, who was involved in a near-fatal crash a few years ago, probably was still taking in the new-car smell of his Bugatti on Tuesday when he was involved in yet another collision.

It wasn't nearly as bad as the 2014 accident that left Morgan critically injured, but serious enough for the "Saturday Night Live" and "30 Rock" alum to get treatment inside an ambulance at the scene. One outlet said he complained of pain in his hip, while another reported that he had hurt his neck.

Morgan, 50, had just plopped down $2 million for the white convertible and had driven off the dealership not long before his new ride and a Honda SUV banged into each other on the streets of New York City.

"He said he got it literally an hour ago and he paid $2 million for it," a witness told Page Six. "He just bought it, dude, and it's pretty scraped up."

(Can you imagine the Honda driver's call to her insurance company? "Yeah, I was just in an accident with a $2 million sports car ...")

Social media posts of the crash scene shows that the vehicles came together on the Bugatti's driver's side and the Honda's passenger side. It was unclear which driver was at fault.

Looks like Tracy Morgan just picked up this 2.5 million dollar Bugatti from the dealer and already involved in a car accident. That's going to be an expensive fender bender for the Honda driver. I'm just going to continue home on my citibike. I think Tracy Morgan should ride start taking the subway #bugatti #honda #jerseydrivers #subway #fenderbender #hellskitchen #oops #rightturn #heidisworld #bugattichiron #tracymorgan #streetsofnyc #newyorkcity

Morgan left with another person after receiving treatment, according to Page Six.

In 2014, Morgan was a traveling on the New Jersey Turnpike when his limousine was hit from behind by a Walmart truck, leading to a six-vehicle pileup. Morgan's friend James McNair was killed in the crash.

Morgan sustained a broken leg and femur, a broken nose and several broken ribs. He spent more than two weeks in the hospital before undergoing a long rehab process.
