The striker had just left United's Carrington base in his £700,000 Rolls-Royce before the smash last night.
Rashford and his teammates had returned from Turf Moor aboard a team coach.

Before the game, Rashford said: "One good result, one good performance, can be a game-changer at this club.
"It's a difficult position and I'm not as happy as I'd like to be, but there's only one way to get back this happiness is to seek results.
"We know the effect that a victory can have on the team and then it's up to the players to show consistency.
"That's what we lacked. Last year, we were very consistent at home, but very irregular away."
Rashford owns three Rolls-Royces – the £700k Black Badge Wraith involved in the crash, a £390k Black Badge Cullinan and just last month he bought a £560k Cullinan Blue Shadow.
Rashford also recently bought a £280,000 McLaren 765 Long Tail and a £350,000 Lamborghini Urus Performante.
It comes after Rashford was one of two Man U players to turn down the captaincy under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, a source said.
In a no-holds-barred interview this week Solskjaer said he was “disappointed” when two players rejected the armband.
However he refused to name names.
