Pinched from another social media page, a dashcam of a stolen car being taken for a joyride. Nothing too dramatic - no chases or crazy crashes - but instead of two dozen one-minute chunks of dashcam you get half an hour of one nutcase breaking laws, driving dangerously and gradually loving up an Audi R8 in the process, with a few stops to show off to people on the way. (He doesn't notice the dashcam.) Fifteen minutes in and the car handling is visibly worse. A little after that he breaks a wheel strut that leaves a rubber trail all the way to where he hides it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LF9-qBXsqgw Edit: uvar fucked around with this message at 14:05 on Dec 28, 2020 |

Ran into one myself today. Let's say you're a relatively new young driver (P plater, I don't know what the US equivalent is), out with some friends on a gravel road with sharp turns. You go too fast round a corner, up a bank, and flip the car, blocking the road to a local reserve and spilling cans of alcohol all over the road. Mom's going to kill you anyway when she finds out, so what do you do? https://i.imgur.com/X4YGGNC.mp4 They gave it a few more yanks after I stopped the video. To be fair, it cleared a lane quickly and the car was probably a write-off anyway, but I feel like there was a better solution waiting to be discovered. (Perhaps they tried and failed to tip it before I got there.)

The dashcam video of it wasn't worth copying but I saw a pedestrian nearly get killed the other day. Traffic light intersection at a non-US "highway" with pedestrian crossings across two of the sides. An old woman with a walker started moving when the lights changed, but must have misunderstood which direction was active and headed off across the highway while the approaching cars had a green light. First car saw her in plenty of time, and slowed to a stop at the line, but it blocked the vision of the car in the next lane which sped past just before she reached its path. It was a good way to get to work feeling very awake.
