- The Chappaquiddick incident occurred on Chappaquiddick Island in Massachusetts some time around midnight between July 18 and 19, 1969, when Senator Edward M. "Ted" Kennedy negligently drove his car off a narrow bridge, causing it to overturn in a tidal pond. This resulted in the drowning death of his 28-year-old passenger Mary Jo Kopechne, who was trapped inside the vehicle. Kennedy left a party on Chappaquiddick at 11:15 p.m. Friday. He maintained that his intent was to immediately take Kopechne to a ferry landing and return to Edgartown, but that he accidentally made a wrong turn onto a dirt road leading to a one-lane bridge. After his car skidded off the bridge into Poucha Pond, Kennedy swam free, and maintained that he tried to rescue Kopechne from the submerged car, but that he could not. Kopechne's death could have happened any time between about 11:30 p.m. Friday and 1 a.m. Saturday, as an off-duty deputy sheriff stated he saw a car matching Kennedy's license plate at 12:40 a.m. Kennedy left the scene and did not report the accident to police until after 10 a.m. Saturday. Meanwhile, a diver recovered Kopechne's body from Kennedy's car shortly before 9 a.m. Saturday. At a July 25, 1969, court hearing, Kennedy pled guilty to a charge of leaving the scene of an accident, and received a two-month suspended jail sentence. In a televised statement that same evening, he said his conduct immediately after the accident "made no sense to me at all", and that he regarded his failure to report the accident immediately as "indefensible". A January 5, 1970 judicial inquest concluded that Kennedy and Kopechne did not intend to take the ferry, and that Kennedy intentionally turned toward the bridge, operating his vehicle negligently, if not recklessly, at too high a speed for the hazard which the bridge posed in the dark. The judge stopped short of recommending charges, and a grand jury convened on April 6, 1970, returning no indictments. On May 27, 1970, a Registry of Motor Vehicles hearing resulted in Kennedy's driver's license being suspended for a total of sixteen months after the accident. The Chappaquiddick incident became national news that influenced Kennedy's decision not to run for President in 1972 and 1976, and it was said to have undermined his chances of ever becoming President. Kennedy ultimately decided to enter the 1980 Democratic Party presidential primaries, but earned only 37.6% of the vote and lost the nomination to incumbent President Jimmy Carter. (en)

- L'incidente di Chappaquiddick è un incidente d'auto accaduto a Chappaquiddick Island, nel Massachusetts, il 18 luglio 1969, causato dalla negligenza del senatore statunitense Ted Kennedy, che portò alla morte della ventottenne Mary Jo Kopechne, rimasta intrappolata nell'autovettura. Secondo la testimonianza di Kennedy, egli perse accidentalmente il controllo dell'auto mentre attraversava un ponte a carreggiata unica, finendo in un canale sottostante. Riuscito a liberarsi, si allontanò dalla scena denunciando l'incidente alle autorità solamente 10 ore dopo l'accaduto. Nel frattempo, la Kopechne morì affogata all'interno del veicolo, che era stato sommerso dall'acqua; l'auto e la Kopechne furono recuperati da alcuni sommozzatori il giorno successivo a quello dell'incidente. Kennedy, che si dichiarò colpevole di aver abbandonato la scena dell'incidente, venne condannato a due mesi di carcere, con sospensione della pena. L'incidente di Chappaquiddick diventò uno scandalo nazionale durante gli anni settanta e probabilmente influenzò la decisione di Kennedy di non candidarsi come Presidente nel 1972 e nel 1976. (it)

- O acidente de Chappaquiddick ocorreu na Ilha de Chappaquiddick, Massachusetts, numa sexta-feira, 18 de julho de 1969. O evento, acontecido no final da noite daquele dia, foi causado por negligência do Senador Ted Kennedy e resultou na morte da passageira Mary Jo Kopechne, de 28 anos. De acordo com o depoimento de Kennedy, ele acidentalmente dirigiu seu carro para fora de uma ponte e caiu na lagoa Poucha. Ele conseguiu sair do veículo e nadou até estar a salvo, deixando a cena em seguida. Kennedy somente avisou a polícia 10 horas após os fatos; Kopechne morreu presa dentro do carro, que ficou totalmente submerso. O carro com o corpo de Kopechne no interior foi recuperado por um mergulhador no dia seguinte, minutos antes de Kennedy reportar o acidente à polícia. Kennedy se declarou culpado da acusação de deixar o local de um acidente que resultou em ferimentos pessoais e mais tarde recebeu uma sentença de dois meses de prisão (suspensa). O acidente de Chappaquiddick tornou-se uma notícia de repercussão nacional. Provavelmente o fato influenciou a decisão de Kennedy de não fazer campanha para a presidência dos Estados Unidos em 1972 e 1976, e acredita-se que o caso minou para sempre as suas chances de se tornar presidente.
