The Dallas Morning News reported more details of Rice’s arrest-warrant affidavit as it states that the two cars, Rice’s Chevrolet Corvette and the Lamborghini Urus Rice admitted to driving, “made multiple aggressive maneuvers to get through traffic” before the accident and that “both took faulty evasive action” to avoid a collision before colliding with a sedan, starting the chain reaction.
