Italian Designer's Insensitive Remarks After Hitting Cyclist Spark Outrage
Italian Fashion Designer Elisabetta Franchi involved in a cycling accident near Imola racetrack. The incident gained media attention not because of the accident itself, but because of Franchi's subsequent social media posts. In her posts, she initially expressed regret, stating, "Mi dispiace molto. È la prima volta, non avevo proprio visto il ciclista." However, further posts showed a video of Franchi discussing the incident with her trainer, where she complained about the difficulty of driving her sports cars and asked where she could drive them without encountering cyclists. This led to outrage on social media, with many criticizing her lack of responsibility and insensitive tone. Franchi later reassured her followers that the cyclist was released from the hospital without fractures. This incident is not the first time Franchi has faced public backlash for her statements. The video concludes with a positive note, emphasizing that the cyclist is recovering well.
