Just two days after buying a $400,000 Lamborghini, a Windermere man crashed it and got arrested in the process.

Florida Highway Patrol said Ronald Tridico, 39, was speeding when he lost control of his brand new sports car on State Road 429 in Orange County.

Troopers said he skidded more than 1,000 feet before the crash. Tridico said another vehicle had cut him off, but troopers said they didn't believe him judging by the skid marks. 

A highway patrol representative said, "Just because you can afford a $400,000 car doesn't mean you know how to drive it." 

Tridico was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence and leaving the scene of an accident.
