More interesting is the theory that Dean's German Porsche employed mechanic, Rolf Wutherich, was probably driving at this point, based on descriptions of the Porsche driver given by cars it passed shortly before the accident. It has been suggested that this was covered up by the the dealer or Wutherich himself in an effort to gain distance from responsibility for Deans death. (The mechanic later was killed in a drunk driving accident in Europe.)
