VIDEO: Hellcat Slams Into Truck, Flipping It Over At Loveland Car Meet

A pickup truck was flipped upside down in a crash in Loveland on Sunday, April 11.

The collision between a Dodge Challenger Hellcat and the unsuspecting Chevrolet Silverado initially closed down one lane of South Lincoln Avenue but then police closed both lanes for an investigation, according to the Loveland Reporter-Herald.

Loveland Fire Rescue Authority Capt. Mark Lyons said one person was taken to a local hospital with minor injuries, saying the accident "... look worse than it was."

The incident occurred at a Cars and Coffee meet in Loveland when a Dodge Challenger Hellcat leaving the event lost control and pushed the truck off the road, ultimately flipping it onto its top.

A staff writer at MotorTrend described what happened to the driver of the Hellcat in order to cause the crash.

"... a Dodge Challenger Hellcat driver decided to let loose the full power of the car's supercharged 6.2-liter V-8. What happens next won't surprise most car enthusiasts. Maybe a few hundred feet from where the driver opens up the throttle, the rear tires lose traction and the Challenger SRT Hellcat lurches to the left—right into the side of an unsuspecting Chevrolet Silverado 1500 passing by."

Although police have not revealed the names of the people involved in Sunday's crash, Loveland Police Sgt. Rob Pride did say the driver of the Hellcat was ticketed for reckless driving.
