The minor crash occurred Wednesday afternoon on the main road to the airport in Wellington, New Zealand's capital, where the parliament is located. Police are investigating the crash.
The Department of Internal Affairs — the agency that manages official vehicles — says the rear of the limousine was damaged.
Luxon told reporters in Auckland on Thursday that the crash was a ''bit of a shock'' but he was ''fine." The prime minister said he did not know if the car would be written off.
