Who's fault? I assume the Lambo had the right of way considering he was going straight?

Lambo was rolling! He'll get tagged for speeding.

Not just that the other car pulled out in front, whihc would be failing to yield the right of way, the turning vehicle should have turned into the right travel lane, yet you can see during the impact that this car is at least partially in the left lane.

In London on a two way street. Though how do you not see or hear a speeding Lambo?

They'll both get tickets

Lamborghini was speeding and Mazda pulled out in front of it. They both caused the accident.

I would say the Mazda is at fault since he pulled out in front of the Lambo but the Lambo was obviously speeding. But listen around the 20 Second mark it sounds like someone started clapping

Lambo definitely at fault. What was he doing 80? Had to be up there to make him get airborne like that.

Not necessarily, yes he was going to fast, probably 45-50, remember that lambo is light- especially in the front- mostly carbon composite, the other car partially pulled into his lane, they both are at fault. but easy to catch air in a situation like that
