When you're driving, there are lots of hazards to keep a keen look out for. Other drivers, maybe animals. But one thing you certainly don't expect is a Lamborghini right under your nose!
But most drivers might be able to see a car right in front of them. However, if you're driving a massive truck with a high sightline, that might be the case. And that's the very expensive mistake one Florida woman made recently, as reported by Dexerto.
A clip originally posted on social media on April 23 shows a Lamborghini Huracán slowly reversing, whilst a lifted Chevrolet Silverado barrels toward it. The woman driving apparently doesn't spot the luxury car, as the truck crushes the Lamborghini's front end.
Head in her hands, the woman exits her vehicle. Other footage from the incident showed the Silverado being backed up onto a tow truck. And apparently, the Lamborghini had to be lifted up by a crane because of the extensive damage.
According to a post on social media, the man in the Lamborghini wasn't injured. He also expressed gratitude for the fact he was okay. "Thank you God for another day and another chance. Material things don't matter to me, my health is the main thing. Nothing stops us, there is much more to grow."

People in the Comments Criticized the Truck Driver
While what the truck driver did could easily be chalked up as an accidents, some commenters weren't so kind.
Commenters were quick to point out that this is a pretty unique accident. One wrote, "Astonishing levels of driving skills. How is this woman able to see children and animals on the road if she didn't see a... whole a** car?" Another commentor wrote, "Is it really that she couldn't see it? How many other people drive lifted trucks that have had this issue? Or was it that she just wasn't paying attention..."
Others blamed the lifted trucks as the reason behind the crash. "These oversized vehicles need to be banned from all American roads. This is not a civilian commuter vehicle. This is a kid-killer," one woman wrote.
While both sides certainly have a point, one thing remains true. People always could do with opening their eyes a little on the road!
