A Ferrari collided with oncoming vehicles in the Jubilee Hills area of the city over the weekend, injuring three people and damaging three vehicles, including two cars and one two-wheeler.

While several vehicles were said to have been damaged in the accident, photos shared by police showed that the Ferrari collided head-on with another car.
