Any reports of accidents from people stareing?

Just in the last week I've seen two car owners (an E55 and an Escalade) almost plowed into the car in front of them while they stare at my silver beauty . I know they can't be looking at me; I'm not that great looking.

Has anyone on the board caused an accident yet?
