However, the difference between the McGregor and the Schwarzenegger incident seems to be the speed of the vehicles. While Mystic Mac said the driver went “Full speed straight thru me,” Schwarzenegger was driving slowly. The police are looking into the Schwarzenegger car crash. However, law enforcement sources have told TMZ the former Mr. Olympia appears to not be at fault, and the incident was unavoidable. This is Arnie’s second accident in a span of nearly a year.
