Driver performing reckless ‘donuts’ smashes into car park lamp post

A driver attempting to show-off by performing donuts in his car was left red-faced as he smashed into a lamp post during the manoeuvre.

CCTV footage captured the moment the white Chevrolet Camero smashes into the concrete base of the post in a California car park, ending up with a crumpled front fender.

The driver attempted to flee the scene shortly after crashing but was arrested by police for reckless driving.
