Lamborghini Murcielago and Nissan GT-R Hit Head on in Central FL - Two Killed
 

http://www2.tbo.com/news/news/2013/f...pol-ar-624418/

About 40 miles east of here, a few exotics got together on a fairly empty stretch of road... guy lets his female friend drive his Lamborghini, and she wipes out, goes through the median and hits a GT-R head on. Both in the Lambo are killed, one in the GT-R clinging to life, the other had relatively minor injuries (think he had a broken leg).

:((( looks bad

24 years old girl driving a lambo ... end of story

Wow 24 with a lambo, who was the guy?

only in florida

probably 55 year old pervert. RIP.

Her being younger makes him a perv?

He was 24 also... family owns a lot of land in that area, cattle ranches, etc.

Has a really large house not far from where the accident was.

I read on a Lambo forum that he inherited money from his parents (whom supposedly were both killed in a previous car accident)... :Oh crap

you dont let 24 year olds drive cars like that!

If that is true abotu his parents, that is pretty sad.

There are quite a few youtube videos of a green twin turbo lambo with a very young guy driving it.

He had two Lamborghinis, an Audi (R8, I believe), among others... he liked his cars I guess.

Females should be barred from driving cars over a certain HP.

I got dibs on the rear window from the lambo

:1orglaugh

What's the chances of a Lambo meeting a GT-R head-on like that?

Check my post above. The owner of the Lambo was hosting a Super Bowl party, and the occupants of the GT-R were guests at the Lambo drivers party - a group of cars went out for a cruise, when the accident occurred.

Not completely a coincidence... :2 cents:

Pretty girl:

BTW, I saw a news article (as opposed to a Lambo forum) which indicated this about Samuel Hampton's family:

Not sure if he paid for his car hobby or his parent(s) did.

Brutal....

Green is an ugly color for a lambo

QFT

that is sad.

Saudi Arabia has many faults, but barring women from driving, is not one of them.

good one :thumbsup

Fault of the guy, letting a 24 year old girl behind the wheel in a lambo = death wish.

Cookie cutter doughy american girl.

true :1orglaugh

It doesn't matter about age it matters about if the person is a fucking idiot or not that doesn't care if they kill someone on the road.

I think many of us know of a guy here on GFY, that owns a popular program that is also was a dentist. Yet rich & being a dentist and older than 24 didn't mean he didn't act stupidly by filming himself driving 200MPH on public roads, uploading it to youtube and bragging about it here..

Age nor money creates common sense..

Poor lambo

No dashcam videos?

"guy lets his female friend drive his Lamborghini"

All you need to know.

while i agree on the first one, i will never understand why people have to be a jackass and insult dead people.

look up "compassion" :2 cents:

Driving experience does help, but at high speeds it's easy to lose control and not only kill yourself but other in your selfish acts.

Sad for the family's regardless of anything else.

Every supercar has certain "quirks" at high speed not being familiar with those quirks kill even the best of drivers. Just being able to push down with your right foot does not make you Tony Stewart.

Such a shame and could have been easily avoided had he not let a woman drive.

woman drivers :)

Listen too all you old whining babies, Id swear you were Canadian ;)

damn, bad crash!

so what's the *proper* age to drive a supercar then if 24 is too young?

Yeah, guess you must wait till your 50 and grey and you have to pay to get touched by some hotties :thumbsup

Some people are just jerks. It's not until someone close to you looses a child that you understand what compassion is.

i don't understand.

I guess its time to step in for me now.

Nobody seems to ever have asked the question why the Lambo crossed the median, which is the very first question I would ask myself investigating this case.

But of course it's a lot easier to blame it on the driver's age. :disgust

If it was a straight road (and I read nothing about corners or bends in that article) I totally don't understand how the Lambo crossed the median, except something like in my crash happened (check sig for that).
And in that case, it's not about the driver's age. Nobody could have prevented that crash if the car decides to change lanes on its own, which is not a rare sight with Murcielagos.

:2 cents:

Dude it was a public road, not a race track. Roads have dips & pot holes they aren't designed for people to drive at insane speeds. You start traveling 100+ mph hit a dip in the road and it's very easy to lose control.

You will regret opening that can of worms,

It's a shame to see young people die so needlessly.
Sport driving wouldn't be fun if there weren't some danger involved. I do it all the time in my Lambo. But I only go real fast on the track.

A real shame and so young.It should be mandatory to have a driving course before they are allowed to drive something like that.and restrictions if you aren't trained

I have zero tolerance & no respect for idiots that treat public roads & highways as their own personal race tracks. I've known people that have died, due to useless pond scum that thought it was cool to drive fast in traffic.

Added to this I grew up racing and certainly understand the difference between the road & a race track.

:2 cents::2 cents: especially someone driving a car like that for the first time?

sad :(

55 to 70 mph max on the road she was on is the restriction. I can drive up and down that road for the rest of my life in my truck and not lose control like that. So what was the wreck factor? Speed? Mechanical failure?

( could it have been a torque related problem/failure?)

.

Jesus you are lucky to be alive after looking at the pics of your car and reading what happened.

article states debris from the lambo spewed 1000 yards, gotta be hauling serious ass to do that.

How fast where they going
