Default Caption that photo, lamborghini
SEATTLE - Lamborghinis may be faster out of the gate, but it appears that Hyundai SUVs may have the edge when it comes to braking, at least in one instance.

Motorist Kelly Davis snapped this picture of a traffic accident on Interstate 5 near Seattle Monday morning.

The Hyundai Santa Fe hit the brakes in traffic, and the Lamborghini behind it wasn't able to stop that quickly, sliding under the Hyundai.

No one was hurt in the accident.

Hyundai stated they had aspirations to get on top of other luxury brands but this isn't what everyone was expecting.

WOW that sucks. It all goes to show reaction time is more important than braking distance alone.
