Ben Affleck's 10-year-old son has crashed a Lamborghini into another car after somehow ending up behind the wheel.
According to TMZ, the movie star was out and about with girlfriend Jennifer Lopez and son Samuel when they visited 777 Exotics, a luxury car rental dealership.
While exploring the varied range of fancy cars on offer Samuel was allowed to get behind the wheel of a bright yellow Lamborghini, a place almost anyone would want to be, let alone a 10-year-old boy.
However, somehow the car ended up crashing into another vehicle.

Samuel pinged the car into a white BMW parked up behind the Lamborghini.
Luckily it was only a little crash and nobody was hurt, while the low speed of the collision meant neither car was badly damaged.
Samuel was well enough to immediately hop out of the Lamborghini and inspect the minor damage, as well as get a comforting hug from his dad.
He wasn't in any trouble, as an employee of 777 Exotics was keen to stress that the whole thing was an accident and no real damage had been caused, the New York Post reports.
They said the car just rocked back and forth a bit once Samuel had got in and because the cars on the lot were parked so close together it caused a collision.
While the car he got behind the wheel of has a top speed above 200mph, it's likely that the 10-year-old didn't even get to two before hitting the other car.
Along with older sisters 16-year-old Violet and 13-year-old Seraphina, Samuel is one of Ben Affleck's three children with Jennifer Garner.
Ultimately he hasn't got hurt and he hasn't caused any real damage to the car so it's not going to be too upsetting an experience for the kid.
All in all it seems as though no harm was really done and it'll probably be an important lesson for the 10-year-old.
With no harm done and everyone coming away from the little crash absolutely fine, it's no surprise that the 777 Exotic staff are fine with welcoming Affleck for future visits.
A spokesperson for the dealership told the New York Post: "Everybody was OK!
"They seemed happy and continued to browse.
"Affleck loves cars. We hope they come in again."
