Police have charged the driver of one of the world’s fastest and most expensive sports cars with drunken driving after it crashed and burst into flames on a New Jersey highway.
State police say 35-year-old William Sherman of Short Hills was driving the yellow 2002 Lamborghini Murcielago on Interstate 78 when he struck a guardrail in Bedminster early Monday.
State Trooper Christopher Kay told the Courier News of Bridgewater emergency crews found the Lamborghini engulfed in flames.
Kay says a female passenger was treated for non-life-threatening injuries.
The car had a suggested retail price of about $275,000 in 2002.
