It was not immediately clear why the sedan smashed into an SUV that was part of the motorcade. The driver was surrounded by agents who had their guns drawn.

A sedan smacked into a Secret Service vehicle that was part of President Joe Biden’s motorcade in Delaware on Sunday night.

Following the crash, U.S. Secret Service agents whisked Biden into a vehicle.

Agents quickly surrounded the sedan with guns drawn and aimed at its driver, who had his hands up. The cause of the crash was not immediately clear.

Special Agent Steve Kopek, a Secret Service spokesperson, said the vehicle that struck was securing Biden’s motorcade route.

    Very odd rule. I just passed 35 recently and i feel like I’m slowly dying already. Feels like a struggle to learn new things

      I think this is exactly the metric our geriatric Congress was going for.

      Around the same age here, and I feel I would have made a much better president in my mid 20s than I would now, for sure.

          It depends on the person entirely. Some mid 20 year olds are absolute idiots, but some boomer age people are absolute idiots. I don’t think age is really a factor in that.

      I think it was to prevent family legacies making the office more like royalty.
