New Italian Police Car

Sorry if this has already been posted

In a blow to the pride taken by Italy's police in their two most glamorous patrol vehicles, one of the cars was clipped by a Seat as the more modest car was edging its way out of a petrol station near Cremona.

The impact sent the exotic police car flying into a line of parked cars.

The low-slung Gallardo ended up with one of the parked cars on its roof, buckling the front of the supercar and leaving it beyond use.

Lamborghini donated the two cars, capable of reaching speeds of more than 200mph and accelerating from 0-62mph in just four seconds, to the police in 2004.

They have since been used to help patrol the country's roads where speeding motorists contribute to almost 5,000 road deaths a year.

I guess Italian police officers don't need to learn how to drive.

Oh dear - the epitome of a bad driving day lol. Gotta love the way the Italians drive.

What makes me laugh is they all drive hell for leather, then when they're walking about they dawdle along - wtf!!

That Lambo steering wheel looks familiar.
