Lamborghini Gallardo - Wrecked by Dubai speed bumper

lamborghini gallardo - wrecked by dubai speed bumper

The government of Dubai thought it would be a good idea to put a speed bump on a street where locals tended to speed. Problem is they didn’t tell anybody. This Gallardo hit it at over 60 MPH.

There’s actually a video of the accident. The back end of the Gallardo goes about 5 feet off the ground.

Hearing the engine rev after the accident doesnt mean he drove off. He’s clearly too far off screen to view what condition the car was in. It’s very likely he’d sustain the damage shown in the photograph

How can you all have political and racial conversations sparked by a banging up his Lambo? Too much thought...just watch the video, laugh, and move on...

OK half of you here are idiots... first off, this is hillarious!.... now, the car WOULD have most of its damage to the front, not the back, because if you watch the video, you would notice that the car rides its nose for a good stretch... To the idiot who thinks that Bill Gates isn’t the richest man in the world, y dont you try and google it... he’s the richest man again now... the arab sheiks arent up there right now.... just a note tho on the fcuk-up with the "towel Head" comment, just because you are to ignorant to know anything outside your hicktown trailer-park doesnt mean that we want to share in ur ignorance.. and to the last guy commenting onthe angle of the back wheel, it is still possible that he drove away, but prob not that far... on the back wheels, he probably broke his ball joint, and having done that before on my own car, u can drive, just not that well... neways i thkn we can all agree that this guy who was driving this is a complete idiot, and its unfortunate that he can afford countless more of these "toys", where im sure his money could be better used... in buying all of us a lambo smiley...

There is one Arab who has voting proxy for over 1/2 of the earth’s assets. Black gold my ass. "$" there’s nothing to compare with oil. (It’s just a coincidence all of "The Bush’s" monie$ are tied up in petro.) And anyone who doesn’t think oil didn’t play a part in the conflict in the middle east.....probably still votes straight ticket. Anyone who votes straight ticket needs to lose that right. You have no original thoughts. Your just doing what you’ve been programed to do. Same with racist. Your weren’t born that way your just doing the dogma/programming of others. What is the basic fear of all living things?......."DEATH". What is something every religion promises...."LIFE" after death, continuation of existence. Man, that’s one hell of a coincidence, don’t you think. If there is a god it’s the genetic material of the first living organism is still in existence in every living thing today. Each person "carries/mutates" this material just by being alive and then passes it on to their offspring. The ultimate "human" will contain the best genes of all the races. They won’t be white, black, yellow, red, brown, etc...They will be gray. And will be the highest lifeform that man will be able to obtain in physical/material form. So all you people sitting out there indulging in the highest form of egotisim there is, keep believing that you have a special superbeing/god out there watching your every moment of life, and be afraid, be very afraid, because if you don’t worship him/her/it enough, or right, they wouldn’t hear your pleas. Religion pratices hate. Oh, they don’t say hate (some do), but they teach if you aren’t one of us, your one of them and have to be ostracized, pitied, shunned, converted, feared,....hated? Isn’t that the next step. Words can’t be unsaid. Thoughts unthought.

Would’ve done the damage on the back of the car not the front!

What was the comment about Bush starting a war for oil? Obivously your a uninformed(Insert whatevery you want here) punk. I suggest looking into the origins of the war by yourself, instead of listening to a bunch of hippies yelling peace>

best thing ever, he totally deserved that!! I don’t think they should annouce it, if people were doing what they were supposed to, it wouldn’t be a problem. Stupid speeders deserve any and all damage done to their cars.

That’s not the same car. If the back passenger wheel bent as it is in the picture, he would not have landed as he did, and got back on the gas ( heard easily in the video). He would have crashed much worse.

Wind your necks in all of you. The bumps are clearly marked. If you are travelling at the correct speeds, you see them quite easily. Whats concerning is that there is extensive road works still ongoing on this road and anyone speeding (like the twat in the lambo) deserves getting their car trashed.

As for a graded speeding fine system, whoever told you that is totally misinformed. One standard fine for speeding. 200 bucks. Doesn’t matter if you’re 20km over or 100km over the limit...200 bucks!!! Its no wonder the roads are one of the worst in the world.

I know this road, as I go along it every day, and yes, there are warnings, also the speed limit is 40KMH, so about 25mph. There is so much bad driving happening in Dubai, in fact Dubai has the third worst roads in the world (after Saudi and Qatar if I recall) some 22 people are killed per 100,000 people, Japan (the best) has just 1.2 people killed per 100,000.

The guys that own these cars are usually early 20’s and so loaded that their parents would call Bill Gates poor!

Incidentally this video was originally posted on www.7days.ae the local free paper, it’s also on - an excellent off road club in Dubai.

Hasn’t anyone noticed that there IS a warning to the drivers??? Watch the video again and look for the FLASHING RED LIGHTS! These were put up as a warning to drivers. This just goes to show how observant some drivers are.

All of you ignorant "american car/harley" morons... Put aside your arrogance towards import/exotic cars. We all know it’s just pure jealousy that fuels your hatred towards them. The government put up an obstruction on a public road, knowing it could cause harm and danger to others, as well as wrecking an incredible automobile. It doesn’t matter what car he has, or even if he does have the money to replace his car 10x over. I, as well as many others, find it sickening that would you find this kind of danger amusing. The government could have put up signs warning about the speed bump easier than they installed the bump. The idiotic government should pay for any/all damages occured by it.

DON’T DO THE CRIME IF YOU CAN’T DO THE TIME. DRIVE OVER THE SPEED LIMIT AND FACE THE CONSEQUENCES. NOW THE RICH BASTARD IS PROBABLY SUING THE CITY FOR DAMAGES.

In some ways this is good, but in others its not. I think it was wrong, however, to avoid warning the drivers with a posted sign. It’s like being in school and tripping someone just because they were running. They shouldn’t be running, but isn’t it a little extreme to trip them? On the other hand, *some* people just can’t get things through their little heads without being slapped on the hand. And for all those who think it *was* justified, what happened to these speeders: Even if they did post a sign, the stupid "fast-n-furious", "look-what-daddy-bought-me", "I-don’t-care-ho w-careful-I’m-dr iving-as-long-as-I-com e-off-as-being-a-hard- ass"... people would probably still miss the sign because they were googling over how far they can make the needle go on their tachometers.

One thing is "fer-shizzle", mr.lambo will be paying more attention when he drives nowsmiley ... by the way, he was very very very lucky the Lamborgini has such awesome control, if it had been a normal car, he probably would have went out of control and died... I don’t know about 60 :\ ... looked like he was going faster

i think putting a speed bump that does damage to a car for speeding is like cutting off hands of thieves. ya they shouldn’t speed (or steal) but its just not a measure of equal justice. don’t forget there could be an ambulance fire truck or police car heading to an emergency and in the end the speed bump may only cause another emergency. and i’m not surprised a prejudicial harley rider would ask for the personal injury or death of a ricer.mainly, that’s american ignorance in its most common form. lambos are not japaneese.

Agree there should be some sort of sign, but happy to see those frickin racers get there right deserve. I ride a Harley and every time one of those ing rice burning, bumble bee, obnoxious little punks zoom around me at mach 1 I pray for a set of spike strips in front of them. Speed rules apply to everyone at everytime everywhere...not just when you see a cop, a sign, or when your radar detector goes off (yes, I think those should be outlawed too). Just my half cent’s worth.
