Nick Hogan was involved in a serious accident in Clearwater, Florida, on the evening of August 26, 2007 at around 7:31pm ET. Nick and three members of the pit crew for his drifting team were using two of his father's cars — a yellow Toyota Supra and a silver Dodge Viper — to travel to a steakhouse when the single-vehicle crash occurred at Court St. and Missouri Ave., near downtown Clearwater. The yellow Supra, which Nick had been driving in the outside lane, fishtailed and spun across the road, crashing into the median strip and into a palm tree. The impact of the collision "destroyed the entire car". The posted speed limit on that stretch of road was 40 mph, but a reconstruction of the crash by police shows that the Supra was traveling "in excess of 60 mph". Danny Jacobs — the pit crew member driving the silver Viper — told police that the speed of the two cars was "not more than 70". Barry Lawrence, his passenger, said that the supra was traveling "at or near 100 miles per hour" when it crashed. " After the crash, Nick told medical workers and members of the drifting community that wet roads were the cause of his crash. Viper passenger and pit crew member Barry Lawrence told police that they were "speeding around" and added that Nick and Danny "always drive like that." After the crash, Jacobs and Lawrence drove to the Bollea family residence to inform Nick's father of the crash. They then returned to the scene of the accident, where they were interviewed by police.
