First we see the Brotruck aggressively prevent a pass by launching a wheel at the offending vehicle, then the wheel comes back to teabag its victim. Clearly deliberate.

Jeeesus Christ.  I wonder if the airbags still provided some modicum of protection considering they deployed the second the wheel impacted and the car got some serious airtime before hitting the deck again.

Just came home from the supermarket and there was a Haval GWM parked opposite me. Didn't think anything about it until the driver got in and turned the car on. The "HAVAL" badge had been replaced with a LED screen and a bright yellow "HAVAL" slid upwards into view then scrolled back and forth for a bit before finally flashing a few times. Most ridiculous tacky poo poo I've ever seen*. Searched online and they're apparently an aftermarket accessory (not gonna lie, bit disappointed it's not standard) you can get from AliExpress and the usual suspects. This isn't what the car had, it was a full LED screen, but it's the closest I could find on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXhr23DBuIg * I want one

The fact that it's not a Ford Maverick makes me grumpy. (also please release an extended cab 6' bed version please, Ford). MrLogan posted:That looks like an F-150, not a Maverick. The rear window is making me think Tacoma for some reason.

My wife has this exact car. I showed her the video, noting (as far as we know) no serious injuries to the driver/occupants.

i was watching a drag racing video last night where the dude wrecked his car, which involved a huge methanol fireball, and he was going down the track with his visor up and the whole time I'm thinking "PUT THE loving VISOR DOWN DIPSHIT"

I once hit a big bug with my helmet at 60 mph and it was enough to rock my head back (and I had to stop and clean off the splatter). Seeing anything bigger than bug hit a helmet freaks me out. Now I'm wondering if I need safety goggles for my bicycle! But I rarely break 20 mph, so that is like 10% as much kinetic energy.

Seeing anything bigger than bug hit a helmet freaks me out. Any sunglasses are more than adequate when biking, though ones designed with cycling in mind will give you more edge/wraparound protection than just some Ray Bans. I've been hit in the face by large bugs at speed and the ones that have hit me on the cheek have hurt like hell, but have bounced harmlessly off my glasses.

It HURTS even through pants and stuff. From the sound and impact I struggle to tell the difference between june bugs and rocks at highway speeds. The only tell is the splatter left on the visor.

Say what you want about the rest, that's a drat fine replica of a sidewinder missile. Down the little Gyroscopic rotational stabiliers on the end of the fins. (SmarterEveryDay did a good video about the design of the sidewinder if anyone is curious)

Yeah I got stung by a wasp on my neck, the only exposed skin on my body, while leaned over in a turn hauling on the throttle. I kept the bike in line but anyone standing nearby would have heard a screamed doppler-shifted FAAAAAACCCCCCKKKKK
