Watch: Audi driver rants, raves after apparently crashing into Lambo

Article content

Drivers of supercars, especially over-the-top Lamborghinis, tend to get a bad rap in terms of their personality traits. However, a viral TikTok video may prove the exception to this rule — if it isn’t faked, of course.

The clip – which blew up via the TikTok account of one Matthew Heller, but is linked below via a YouTube channel with the same name – shows the driver of an Audi berating a Lamborghini driver, apparently following a rear-end collision. Why is this notable? Well, it appears that despite the ire on display from the Audi driver, it was not the Lambo which caused the crash.

Watch: Audi driver rants, raves after apparently crashing into Lambo Back to video

[UPDATE 2021/10/6: A new TikTok video apparently uploaded by the driver of the Audi seems to show footage of the white Lamborghini swerving into the oncoming traffic lane around the Audi to hurry through the intersection, nearly hitting a cyclist using the crosswalk.

In another video, the same poster says her Audi was sideswiped by the Lambo during the maneuver. Our original story continues below, but we will add further updates if they become available. —Ed.]

On TikTok, the video begins with the Audi driver seemingly abandoning her car in the street while marching to the Lamborghini in order to shout at its occupants. That car’s driver rebuffs her protests, since it seems clear to him it was the Audi which caused the incident.

The clip then goes on to show what looks like footage from a security camera at that same gas station, presumably being shown to the Lambo driver by an employee of the store, which appears to show the Audi proceeding through an intersection at speed before tagging the Lambo’s back bumper.

Thanks to an abundance of TikTok users seeking their 15 minutes of fame recently, we’re taking the video with several large grains of salt — there is no shortage of clips in this world which contain situations that were staged in order to gain internet infamy. Still, the outrage being shown by this Audi driver looks all too real, and damage to the supercar appears genuine.

Our takeaway? Investing in a dash cam (some of which peer rearwards as well) is becoming an increasingly good idea, especially for anyone rocking a six-figure vehicle. Actually, it’s a decent suggestion even for those of us with clapped-out hoopties. Stay vigilant, folks.
