Rashid says something so vulgar that Daniel thinks he hallucinates it. Weird, honestly, which thing he's currently experiencing that he assumes is a hallucination.

Sure, he thinks, watching Lestat abduct an on-fire vampire.

'Car's gonna hit something in ten seconds,' he sends to Louis, and says it out loud at the same time, which prompts Rashid to start trying to slow down. Daniel thinks please hear me please be awake please let the fire be a sign you are awake and not dying from whatever was in there, is that a fucking chain, what the fuck—

A door handle smacks into the windshield, sending a spiderweb crack through it, but it holds. Is this a Toyota?

The van doesn't stop, and though it begins to lose speed as dead weight is finally lifted off the gas pedal, it's not soon enough. Daniel is off, it's more like twelve seconds, but the van does collide with the limo, no squeal of tires, no attempt at braking, BAM, a bomb-like noise of the hit and shattered glass everywhere. The t-boned vehicles skid further down the road for a few meters and grind to a halt, and Daniel hears sirens before Rashid will be able to, and he repeats the extremely vulgar thing.

Not for long. Up, out, to the ruined mangle of van-limo-hybrid creature.

"Louis?!"

There are still two guys in the front. The limo driver (technically, the limo thief) is still going at a dead sprint, though she's starting to feel very lightheaded.
