Lamborghini falls victim to treacherous driving conditions
The hired Lamborghini crashed in wet driving conditions.

A Lamborghini driver has smashed into a motorway barrier before fleeing the scene, police have said.

The white luxury supercar was left abandoned on the side of the M66 near Ramsbottom on Sunday morning.

The Lamborghini Huracan sustained extensive damage, and the windshield had cracked and caved in.

Greater Manchester Police posted images of the smash, warning the public of the dangers of aquaplaning, the Manchester Evening News reports.

In the post, officers said that cars “don’t make very good boats”.

They tweeted: “Road traffic collision on the M66 near to junction 1.

“The driver of this Lamborghini lost control on standing water and took out a section of barrier before making off on foot prior to police arrival.

“A very expensive mistake…. They don’t make very good boats! Vehicle recovered and [enquiries] ongoing.”Heavy rainfall overnight across the North West of England saw flooding on a number of roads.

The Met Office issued a yellow weather alert over the weekend, meaning that “severely bad weather is possible over the coming days”.
