A female driver lost control of a Bentley convertible and crashed it into other luxury vehicles in a £1million car crash.
The costly car accident occurred in Monaco, near the Hotel De Paris.
The outside of the hotel, which also houses the Monte Carlo casino, is lined with numerous luxury cars throughout the day as the super-rich flock to the area to flaunt their wealth.
However, one driver appeared to have gotten a little too excited behind the wheel of a Bentley Azure convertible.
In the footage, shared widely on social media, a loud bang can be heard as tourists and locals alike shake. The camera then pans to a build-up of several cars with a bright blue Bentley Azure, worth up to £150,000, in the centre.

The other side of the car is shown, revealing that a £194,000 Aston Martin Rapide hit the Bentley on the passenger side.
The car has a large scratch on the driver’s side where it appears to have crashed into the trunk of a white sedan while passengers inside that vehicle struggled to get out.
Meanwhile, the Azure’s front bumper is also damaged and it crashed into what appears to be a stationary Ferrari 599, which could cost upwards of £700,000, damaging the front bumper.
A Monaco traffic officer can be heard blowing his whistle to try to disperse the growing crowd that has gathered to gape at the incident.

Other cars nearby include a Rolls Royce Ghost and a Porsche 911; both appear to have escaped virtually unscathed.
Reacting on social media, Daniel Alfie said: ‘How embarrassing. It had to happen.’
Mike Roberts joked: “You can’t park there.”

Another user asked why so many people were driving in such a busy area.
Monaco has long been a playground for the super-rich who visit and live in the microstate to take advantage of low taxes.
Famous residents include Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton and singer Bono.
The area is also a popular tourist destination with 323,000 people traveling to Monaco in 2023.
