The accident occurred in heavy rain on a 40mph section of Renfree Way, Shepperton, Surrey, on Sunday.
The rare Bugatti Veyron collided with a Vauxhall Astra van carrying a pregnant woman, who was taken to hospital as a precaution but later went home.
No one else was hurt but police have reported the Bugatti driver for driving without due care and attention.
Surrey Police said the luxury car was driven by a man who had a male passenger with him.
A man and a woman were travelling in the Astra.
The accident occurred at 1440 GMT and the road was closed until 1630 GMT.
The eight-litre, hand-crafted Veyron has a top speed in excess of 250mph.
The 1,000 horsepower Bugatti can accelerate from 0 to 60mph in 2.5 seconds.

Why people have to buy such expensive powerful cars is beyond me very few people are trustworthy enough not to speed and this just goes to show how stupid people can be. At least the people in the van were ok and their insurance will cover the cost of the van parts, I just hope that the driver of the Veyron gets plenty of penalty points on his license.
