It is often said that the ability to buy a supercar doesn’t mean you have the ability to drive it. Now, an Australian man has proven that the same is especially true for those who have the means to rent a supercar.

Police in Sydney, Australia, are on the hunt for the driver of a rented Lamborghini Huracan who crashed the vehicle into a used car dealership. Security camera footage shows the car veering across three lanes of traffic into the lot.

Before coming to a stop, the Lamborghini hit a raised curb, and crashed into a Ford Falcon. That pushed the parked car onto its side, and the Huracan came to a rest on top of it. The force of the crash was enough to damage two other cars that were parked next to the Falcon.

After the accident, the driver reportedly exited the vehicle in a panic, complaining of whiplash. Witnesses said the driver told them he didn’t want to involve the police, and that he would sort things out through the rental company. He then got into another vehicle, and drove off before police arrived, reports 9 News Australia.

The Lamborghini Huracan was owned by Lambo For Hire, which is, in turn, owned by Crash Claim, an accident management company. The company would not tell reporters from 7News Australia the name of the driver who was in possession of the car at the time of the crash.

Fortunately, the collision occurred at around 9:00 p.m. local time, so no one was at the RV Motors dealership. Despite returning to a shocking amount of damage, the business’s owner, Christopher Quach, had a sense of humor about the accident, in which there were no reported major injuries.

“My first reaction, well, I said, ‘half a million dollars doesn’t look good up there, that’s for sure.’ That was my first reaction,” he said with a laugh. “With such an expensive car, there’s no talent there, obviously.”

Quach said that the accident resulted in two of his vehicles being totaled, and one other requiring repairs. Fortunately for him, the vehicles were insured.
