Who would feel worse, the owner of the car or the lorry driver that ran in to him?

Or the dealer that supplied the car, supposedly after a full PDI. That shouldn't happen.
I'm smelling lawyers circulating...

The news quoted a comment where the rear driver was called innocent. Maybe that was fake news, but in times of the Donald it will depend on the better attorney anyway

Quite a few if they are given to breaking down in the 3rd lane I would think, either it was an instant stop or he didn't have forethought to get over a couple of lanes.

Thank goodness nobody was injured.

Someone posted a couple of them colliding on here last week so the loss rate would seem quite high.

I always thought any rear end accident is the fault of the vehicle driving into the rear of the car due to not leaving enough distance to stop safely.

I'm still amazed to see how many videos of Lambos catching fire you can find in the Internet. They really don't seem to be very reliable.

Here in Madrid, when Cristiano Ronaldo came to the city to play with Real Madrid, he bought a brand new Lamborghini Aventador.

2012 - The car being brand new broke in the city center in the Gran Via Street. Like having it ruined in Trafalgar Square if you live in London.

2017 - The same car left him down in the Navacerrada Mountain pass. Again with thousands of tourists giggling around…

There was a saying here in Madrid, that the best chance to get a picture of Cristiano Ronaldo are the days he drives his Lambo, because he won't be able to run away...
