Real classic stuff with a real supercar! I wonder just how fast that cop was travelling at the time?

Despite it not being the cop's fault, I think a lot of people would have had a smirk on their faces when they saw the wrecked Lambo with Polizia on the side... lol.

Ahhh yes... not a good use of a donated vehicle...wonder whether lambo will give them another one..

4700+ killed on Italy's roads last year - wow, they sure have a road safety problem over there!

I remember driving on an Autostrada in 2004, going from Innsbruck (Austria) to Lake Garda (Italy).

It was bloody insane.

Malaysia verges on almost 20,000 a year.

Most of them would be scooter riders. I've seen Mum, Dad and two kids on little bikes over there! Riders are often smoking and/or on the phone too. Insane. 'Love driving in KL but wouldn't ride there.

Yes had fun driving in Malaysia earlier this year. You get to drive like a maniac and nobody bats an eyelid. LOL.

that's about 12% higher than australia in terms of deaths per million people, Malaysia on the other hand.......

mind you, deaths per million is a pretty useless statistic, it should be deaths per kilometer driven, I suspect Australia would be a LONG way down on that list.

In Malaysia just make sure you have a few notes in your wallet if you get pulled over

Yeah, a 100 Ringgit note works wonders.
