When you own a very expensive luxury sports car, you will have a tendency to test how fast the car can go. But unless you have couple of them in your garage, every time you put the pedal to the metal, you’ll need to exercise staying alert and cautious at the same time. However, based on the picture above, it seems that the driver of this Lamborghini Murceilago LP 640 may have forgotten these two characteristics.

The accident took place at Mumbai, considered to be India’s financial capital, located in the state of Maharashtra. It’s said that the driver may have lost control of the vehicle after driving at high speed. So as a result, the front end of the sports car was completely wrecked, possibly due to the car colliding with the gutter while running at a high speed. The impact even caused one its rear wheels to twist out of position. There are no reports though, if its driver was able to walk away with any major or minor type of injuries or if he or she was able to walk out at all.

So for those who enjoy getting a kick out of driving at high speeds, may this serve as a warning that you should exercise caution at all times. It also teaches you that if you do decide to drive fast, try using a less expensive vehicle.
