NASCAR Xfinity Series driver, Anthony Alfredo, recently posted a head-scratching apologetic tweet regarding a highway accident that took place on the I-55 Highway. Upon taking a closer look, fans realized that the accident had nothing to do with Alfredo but rather his name.

Alfredo retweeted a video of a highway hauler crash that apparently spilled Alfredo sauce all over the road. In the captions, he went on to state, My hauler driver and I are very sorry for the inconvenience everybody.
