7 Princess Grace of Monaco: Rover 3500

On 13 September 1982, Princess Grace and her daughter Princess Stephanie were involved in an accident when their Rover 3500 P4 careered off one of the winding roads leading to Monaco. Princess Stephanie was able to get out of the car when it finally stopped rolling, suffering only a few injuries. Princess Grace wasn't so lucky.
