Vince McMahon, Ex-WWE, Cited After Multi-Vehicle Car Accident

Vince McMahon Involved in Car Accident in Connecticut

Former WWE CEO Vince McMahon was involved in a car accident on a Connecticut highway, resulting in damage to his Bentley and two other vehicles. This incident occurred hours before the news of the death of wrestling legend Hulk Hogan was announced. According to police reports, McMahon was cited for reckless driving and following another vehicle too closely. The accident took place last Thursday morning on the Merritt Parkway in Westport. Fortunately, there were no injuries in the incident. McMahon was released after posting a $500 bail and was ordered to appear in Stamford Superior Court on August 26. The accident was initially reported by TMZ. Images captured by Barbara Doran, one of the people involved in the accident, revealed significant damage to the front of McMahon’s 2024 Bentley Continental GT Speed, which was seen being towed in Westport. The photographs also showed damage to the rear of Doran’s BMW 430. The police report indicates that McMahon was driving north on the highway, also known as Route 15, when he rear-ended the BMW and crashed into a wooden barrier. A vehicle traveling south hit the debris from the accident that jumped over the barrier. According to the police, there were no passengers in any of the vehicles and all three drivers were wearing seatbelts. McMahon’s car airbags deployed, but not those of his BMW, according to the police report.

The impact caused her car to leave the road.

I was in the right lane and, suddenly, boom. I was hit from behind and catapulted forward and you can see the skid marks where I was desperately trying to stay on the road.

Doran stated that a state police officer informed him that the other driver was McMahon, whom he did not know well. After the accident, they both talked.

He just, you know, expressed his concern, was glad I was okay and all that. And I thanked him for his concern.

McMahon stepped down as WWE CEO in 2022 amid a company investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct. He also resigned as executive chairman of the TKO Group Holdings board of directors, WWE’s parent company, last year, a day after a former WWE employee filed a sexual assault lawsuit against him. McMahon has denied the allegations. The claim is still pending.
