I bet the driver was showing off in front of that woman. Didn't know the limit of that LP Superleggera....and the result... very sad

knowin the conditions of the road that was not fit for the car to be driven in such manner, he was not very wise at all!

I think the driver was male. So the LP570 superleggera just launched into the air, slammed into a street light & then caught fire? how is it possible to launch itself unless there was another vehicle in front of them. And R.I.P. to them.

exactly my first thought @PawL
It`s simply incredibly stupid to make streets ur own personal a race track in such wet conditions.

@chris25:
He hit the guard rail on the middle of the street.
I feel sorry for the woman, especially since this happened less than 30km away from me.

that's why you have to think before doing stupid shit, specially knowing that you have somebody else's life in your hands. If you plan on driving recklessly, do it while you're alone.

even alone, other drivers are also in danger... its really sad how ppl wanna show off in their expensive car when they cant even drive :(

Stupid driver. Aquaplaning can happen at 70km/h (~43mph), so driving a supercar on a wet motorway without speed limits is like playing Russian roulette; hit a puddle and you're quite certainly dead. It's a shame he took someone's life with his own. I don't feel sorry for the ass who drove the car.

RIP to them both, although it sounds like the driver was being a complete arse.

Oh man, that is the new 570-4 right? Man, that is so screwed! The headlight is the only item that can be sold as a spare part.
Oh, there were people inside? R.I.P. Don't go over the speed limit in heaven btw.

So sad to hear about people being killed in looking to buy a car
just imagine the conversation in heaven from people who have passed away from car crashes
R.I.P to the 28 year old female
the rims of the car look to be the new LP560 gallardo

I have seen too many test drives gone bad... They should put a limiter on such cars to avoid those who never owned a supercar. I personaly tested many new cars yet never drove like an idiot "in the rain" Well, I hope they R.I.P!

A limiter does no good unless its set below 80 mph, anything above that, you're dead if you drive like an idiot. Is there a limiter for stupid drivers that can't handle their supercars?

He should have let the lady drive, it was her test drive. Showboating in the wet conditions putting everyone elses life at stake for a shot at a piece of ass. It's safe to say they both bought the car.

these test drive presentations should be done by professional test drivers, not some sales folks. I believe accident could have been avoided. 2 lives, so sad :(
