Italian Police Lamborghini Crashes

The exotic and high-end car destruction rampage continues! Those who enjoy seeing machinery destroyed have got quite their fill over the past few weeks, seeing the Bugatti Veyron crash into a lake, a Ferrari California crash into construction equipment, an Aston Martin crash into a tree (cracking it in half), and an Audi R8 get into an accident involving two 0ther cars - what a list!

Now another one has happened, this time involving a Lamborhini and the police - it is not your "usual" (if there is one) exotic-car crash story though. For those who want to hear about the Gallardo, and not one being crashed, CarThrottle recently completed its review of the Italian supercar.

This was not a high speed chase that resulted in the offender's Lamborghini being crashed, but instead a case involving the police's own Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Polizia  (a special vehicle Lambo donated to the Italian police) - and into parked cars, no less.

Italian newspaper Corriere Della Sera reports that an officer was supposedly driving the Lamborghini when someone pulled out of a fuel station and onto the road. In order to avoid a crash, the driver reacted and swerved into parked cars along the road.

This resulted in a wrecked Gallardo that found itself under a Mercedes-Benz A-Class. Not a good position to be in. What a shame! Reports say that the driver and passengers were only slightly injured though, so that is good news. Check out still images of the crash put into a video below.
