That Was Expensive

  • A Lamborghini traveling at a high rate of speed blew a traffic signal and crashed into a squad car early Saturday morning on Michigan Avenue, injuring a police officer, Chicago police said.

    Shortly before 4 a.m., a police vehicle was eastbound on Illinois Street when a southbound Lamborghini traveling at a high rate of speed blew a red light in the 400 block of North Michigan Avenue and crashed into the driver’s side door of the squad car, Chicago police said.

    The officer was taken to a local hospital, and was treated and released.

    The driver of the Lamborghini was cited for speeding and disregarding a traffic signal, police said.
Is there a Personal Injury attorney in the house?

I wonder what the cost of damage was ? The deductible will kill the driver.....

Was it over $1500.00 in damage or were cars drivable? Bet the Lambo will be on a YouTube video being rebuilt soon.

Never mind the officer went to hospital so guess it was a traffic crash.

Better get Dewey Cheatem and How......

Can anyone tell me why suburban police are not writing Hit and run crash reports?

Had family get rear ended last night on way home from work. From Major Trauma Center that City uses all the time!
She got damage to rear of suv and other driver took off and she only got license plate.

Suburban officer stated she had no information on driver and that damage to her suv was under $1500.00!

30 years working ChiRaq and writing 1000s of reports I am puzzled, Am I missing something here?

So on Monday after a trip to body shop and providing a quote do we then go back to Department?

The Trib’s story a complete bag of incompetent crap!
The story says the Lambo hit the driver’s door but the squad in the pic shows no damage except to the bumper.
Also, if the cops were on Illinois, how is it the Lambo is shown next to the wreckage of the gate for the Michigan Avenue bridge?
(Which is what appears to have caused the vast majority of the damage.)

Like I said (Tweeted?) on Twitter yesterday when the Tribune posted (Tweeted?) this:
---> This article is worthless without pictures <---

The Sun-Times was kind enough to post a pic of the Lambo.
--- Ouch! was my first thought.
--- My 2nd thought was -- If that driver owned the Lambo, they better put him on suicide watch.
--- Now I'm thinking it had to be a rental. From that new company that rents Exotic Cars for 24 hours. Per Google, the cost is $995.00 for 24 hours. (I just noticed, a $5,000.00 Dollar Security Deposit is required. Oh well, no Lambo for me. LOL.)

That $5000 security deposit is for minor damage. Like bumper scrape or parking lot damage.

Since most local body shops have never seen a Lambo much less have any idea how to fix or get parts.

So the insurance will total it out. Assuming the driver had another car with insurance, his policy should cover up to the policy limits.

Most people car $100K property damage coverage. That Lambo over that. So unless the driver got a 1 day supplemental coverage, he is going to owe.

................
The suburban officer may have gotten confused. Technically, a crash report is not required for damage under $1500 as along as there's no personal injury.
If any of the drivers do not have car insurance then the damage threshold is $500. He/She probably just figured because of the damage.

It is a CPD directive that all crashes that occur within the City must be reported regardless of damages.

So long as the damage isn't above 500, Hit and Run Auto Accident....Aka: Failure to stop and ID...
