When I watch that video on mute, it doesn't look like the lambo dude did anything wrong.

No idea if he's speeding or not, but with the volume just that engine noise makes it sound like he was going to fast.

Either way, clearly that dude pulled out in front of him... Hope he has good insurance!

Damn that is confusing! They drive the wrong way on the roads, and the cars are parked the wrong way on both sides!

I would hate to be the claims adjuster on that case.

I can't hate on a guy just because he has a nice car. Seems like the other car pulled right out in front of him. I'm sure the Lambo driver has enough insurance to cover his car because the "other guy" isn't ever going to have enough.

Agreed. I'm jealous but don't wish the guy any ill will. I thought it was sad to see fluid leaking out of the front end but also classic to see a bystander run to help the blonde women out of the passenger seat but no one even approach the male driver.

He couldnt have been paying attention to the other car turning in. That Aventador could have stopped completely in only a few feet. Seems he tried instead to shoot the gap but didnt commit soon enough. Of course who knows exactly what happened but it appears both drivers suck.

Not sure why exactly but it makes me laugh every time I see it. Bummed for the E46 taking a whack though. It was just an innocent bystander.

It looks like someone pulled out in front of him. I don't see what the video has to do with his race, his financial situation, or the fact that he's driving a fast car on the road with pedestrians on the sidewalk?

The guy who helped the female passenger out was his friend in the Porsche behind, who he was racing.
His race has no significance, but just a fact that people from the Arab States are becoming a nuisance with street racing high end cars with sometimes void insurance and risk to pedestrians, and being his fault or not, this incident could of been far worse.

Well there you have it....racing...independent of anything else, a bad decision..... If they were racing they picked the wrong environment for sure......
