Senator John Fetterman, a Democrat from Pennsylvania, was involved in a car crash in Maryland on Interstate 70 on Sunday night. Reports indicate that Fetterman was driving at a high rate of speed before rear-ending another vehicle. This is not the first time that Fetterman has exhibited unsafe driving behaviors, as earlier this year he pleaded guilty to a speeding citation for driving 34 mph above the posted speed limit. In 2016, he also received a speeding ticket for driving at least 24 mph above the speed limit. Despite these incidents, Fetterman has not faced any serious consequences for his actions.
In the recent crash, Fetterman and his wife, Gisele, were in a Chevrolet Traverse that rear-ended a Chevrolet Impala. Both vehicles were towed from the scene, and all parties involved were taken to the hospital for minor injuries. Fetterman released a video with his wife thanking everyone for their well-wishes and revealed that they were celebrating their 16th wedding anniversary at the time of the accident. Gisele described it as the worst anniversary, as Fetterman held a bag of frozen peas and Tylenol. This crash is just the latest example of Fetterman’s unsafe driving habits, which have raised concerns among his staff.
According to reports, Fetterman has a history of distracted driving, including allegedly being on FaceTime and texting while behind the wheel. His former aides have expressed frustration over his love of attention and support for Israel, as well as his dangerous driving habits. They have claimed that they refrain from messaging Fetterman while he is driving due to concerns about his behavior. Despite these allegations, Fetterman’s office has dismissed them as gossip and inaccurate. The specifics of Fetterman’s distracted driving incidents have not been disclosed, and his office did not respond to requests for comment on the matter.
Earlier this year, Fetterman pleaded guilty to a speeding ticket and was ordered to complete a driver’s improvement course as a result. However, he has not faced any significant repercussions for his actions on the road. In the recent crash in Maryland, police determined that Fetterman was at fault for rear-ending the other vehicle while driving at a high rate of speed. This incident has once again brought attention to Fetterman’s unsafe driving behaviors and raised questions about whether he should face consequences for his repeated violations of traffic laws. The senator’s office has not addressed these concerns publicly, leaving the details of his driving history and potential disciplinary actions unclear.
