That sucks. Its pretty kool how the video was being shot when it happen and you can hear it crash.
It never did occur to me that they made RHD Lambos. Thats tight, If I ever get to order one I want it to be RHD.

Didn't watch the video but from that screen shot it looks like it's in the UK as I see one of those double decker buses.

This is the 3rd known LP640 crash. It crashed outside an office building in Kings Cross, North London.

It looks the airbags did not go off.

What is up with their safety equipment?

That's what happens when you play with speed on such a small (and busy) street. What an idiot!

Pretty freaky crash. Lucky that the driver walked out with no injuries on an otherwise unsafe exotic.

On a side note, it looks like Russia employs the Bimmer 5-series for their police vehicles

Limited model. Named 640 for the amount of HP.

It's blocking the road...move it off the curb and cry later. I HATE how traffic incidents people leave the cars sitting in the main flow causing more traffic issues. It's not like a murder investigation where they want all the details to remain un-touched.
