This hit Reddit yesterday... Palatine Road & Wheeling Rd in Wheeling was the identified intersection. It almost looks like the camera car was egging the guy on; but seriously...

Hmmm all those driver nannies and he ends up in a heap...LOL Maybe some skill would be a better investment than traction control.

I think that Lambo suffered a major fail somewhere between the steering wheel and driver's seat.

That goes back to lesson one I learned on this site when I first bought my Viper... "Have front wheels pointed straight ahead when jumping on it..."

I'm thinking that, similarly provoked and mishandled, a Viper would've safely performed a complete 360 instead of veering into oncoming traffic.

;)

I give the video car occupants credit for pausing a beat prior to breaking out in laughter. There's that "I can NOT believe he did that" moment, and then you really can't help but laugh at foolishness (in the absence of injury, of course).

I hate to see stuff like this, but that's what happens when you hit the gas pedal while making a turn!
That's one embarrassed Lambo Driver and 2 very unhappy victims. On the + side, at least no one looks injured?

You only have to go on You Tube to see more of these incidents. So many cars get on the Gas while making the turn :rolleyes:

I can drift my frigging Escalade..seriously that trucks a riot in the rain. But I know how to drive stuff. What happened to that guy was what happens when you hit the gas when making a turn and you arent at least as skilled as jeremy on top gear. LOL As a driver that lambo guy is completely incompetent. You can see his brain lock up as fear overcame him and he realized he was in a slide and did not know which way to turn the wheel or how much. SO.... he did nothing and there you go. I would never ride with that guy anywhere.

Seriously, does everyone and his mother always have a video rolling at all times. I'm not sure what's worse crashing your car or the shame associated with being plastered all over the net. I love how dumb the guys are that posted the video, they show themselves crossing a double yellow through the left turn lane. Talk about implicating yourself, hello, have you heard of editing the video.
