Is this AI-generated? I can not put my finger on why, but it feels like it.
Exactly what I thought when I opened it. Everything feels off in that video.
Oh, I recognize this, it’s the first level of Driver on Playstation 1
Dude he first driver was one of the best games
I’m sorry, where is the fucking engine?
i was hungy :c
With god

Not even Matt armstrong would take this
Well at least the old dipshit looks appropriately miserable. I give even odds on his insurance dropping him after this shit.
You can’t park there mate.
Support column built by the same company that makes telephone poles for GTA
I hadn’t played since it came out really and played some for the first time again last month. My dedecution has been if it’s metal, you can plow through it, if it’s wood it’ll plow through you.
And then all the sudden a few objects will defy these assumptions and you wind up driving through a fence and find a metal rod turning you into a pretzel.
The Americans should build their houses like this column, instead out of paper mache.
They have a hard time even affording the cheap paper mache shit they make them out of now.
I can’t imagine how much more eye watering the price would be if they were made like this.
Could that be because companies use the cheapest materials and labour to then sell the houses expensively and reap massive profits??
Yes it is pure greed and if you make it more expensive for them to do that then they will just gouge even harder to make up the difference in lost revenue.
What we should really do is tie all of the CEOs of those companies up to poles like this and run into them like this guy did that column and after a couple of years the problem would solve itself.
That was a BMW M440i (i recognize the wheels, color and slope of the back). It has a 386hp/398lb-ft turbocharged inline 6 with a mild hybrid system. BMW says it can do 0-60 in 4.3s, but independent tests have shown it can do 3.9-4.1s
Most likely this idiot used launch control in the parking structure wanting to show off and lost control, eating the pillar
That’s the same thought I had, that’s some incredible acceleration to have a crash like that inside a building.
Fun fact, not even the most powerful version of that car, that would be the M4 which can do under 3 seconds in the xDrive variant.
But it has enough tuning potential that you could get M4 performance out of the M440i no problem. B58 is considered to be the modern day equivalent of the Toyota 2JZ, to the point that even Toyota uses it in the modern Supras.
I’ve heard that the only thing slowing down cars now is tires. Like we can make motors or ICE hit the wall of material science in the rubber meeting the road.
Yeah, EVs can drive their tyres at the absolute limit of traction on launch.
It can do 60-0 even faster.
Within the length of its own hood apparently.
Yeah, I saw some assuming he was drunk but it is just as likely that this guy made a split second decision and jumped on it thinking what could go wrong I’ve done it before and poof.
People don’t like to view vehicles as murder machines but they very much are. If raising the front end 40% increases the chance of death by 40% to pedestrians and the only benefis were “I like the way it looks” or in this case the car being designed to accelerate at speeds that arent comfortable or safe because “I think it can be fun sometimes” at the detriment of others is just poorly planned.
Sure the guy is at fault, but so is the company that manufactured it, and the government bodies that allowed it on public roads.
If someone wants to have a hobby playing with and racing cars, that’s fine; but they don’t belong in public areas.
I love it when people know things
Must be why you left reddit. 😏
launch control
Today I Learned: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Launch_control_(automotive)
Why would this even be present in a street legal vehicle?
Same reason Jeeps have more ground clearance and suspension travel than they need to operate on public roads. Some people use their vehicles for both transportation and recreation.
Money.
I sometimes wonder why the US even has a government.
Incidentally that’s a German car that’s sold worldwide with that feature. Japanese, American, Chinese, British and other cars have that feature too.
It did, once.
Before the dark times.
Before the Empire.
1491
An artifact of more sensible times. Besides, without it how would we even know who our glorious leader was?
🙄🥺
What the hell, that’s STOCK for a BMW M series?
That makes skateboards sound safe.
That’s been pretty common in high end performance cars for over a decade. Good for Darwin awards.
Fortunately it’s also noisy enough that you can IMMEDIATELY tell and get the fuck out of the way. EVs need to start making noise like that lol.
The Grand Tour did an absolutely hilarious take on it, even Clarkson agreed it’s stupid in street cars
Today, that guy learned as well.
Someone watched Tokyo Drift too many times growing up
Absolutely amazing how intact the cabin is. Modern car safety is phenomenal.
Back in my day, cars killed their inattentive drunk drivers. Now, they just kill innocent children.
the reason i’m a proponent of the adaptive cruise control systems is that i was very, very nearly in a 30 car pileup on the Grapevine (if you don’t know the stretch of road, I-5 north of LA, south of bakersfield. very mountainy and curvy, there’s always a fire or an accident when i drive by four times a year). It was foggy and the ACC saw the car ahead of me before I did, let us stop before hitting it and making it a 32 car pileup.
When I was growing up (80s and 90s) that size accident would have multiple fatalities. Only one person had to go to the hospital, and she was pregnant. They wanted to check on the baby. Everyone else just had light bruising/abrasions.
Modern cars seem like a miracle compared to what i started driving.
“Innocent children”? Do you have children? Because mine are assholes whose only purpose is to constantly terrorize me and keep me poor. 🤣
They are too sensitive on here for jokes like that. Even the word truck or BANG scares them.
… So you’d be ok with them getting run over and killed? Lmao
Depends on the life insurance, I think? 🤔
The future is now
I think that’s the driver at the beginning, sadly sitting against his wreck, but otherwise fine.
I was in a high speed wreck. Two Giant American Trucks filled with 8 adults. The adrenaline/shock was intense, but the only bad thing that happened was I lost my glasses, we were all fine.
The old shithead, leaning on the rear tire, is lucky his fuck-up did not start a fire. Revoke his driver’s license permanently.
Because everyone knows cars won’t start unless you have a valid license right?
Very true - because taking away his license wouldn’t physically prevent him from operating a vehicle, we shouldn’t do it at all. Because incremental progress is for losers.
when the police revoked my MIL’s license in front of us, i’ll be honest i’ve never been more thankful for police. She knew she was a menace on the road and enjoyed it.
That day is probably coming, where you tap your license to start the car.
I used to work for a warehouse that had badge readers on the forklifts. You would “start” the forklift by tapping your badge to the reader. It would be no effort to add that to a car.
It is amazing how fast this car must have accelerated in this rather limited space to make an accident like this.
It was some jackass doing laps in the parking garage. The cringe boy racer kids do this shit because if it’s not on the street then they can’t catch charges beyond trespassing.
Looks like it was the old guy next to tge car, no. Cringe behavior has no age limit. But realistically, maybe not everyone should drive 400hp cars
That’s exactly what I thought, that’s some serious acceleration.
Lots of crumple zones too… But yeah, lol.
@Treczoks That doesn’t look like a sports car, either.
At least not anymore
Seems like a bmw/toyota supra, fairly fast. also as the camera whips to the dog right near the end I think that was the run up to the stop section.
This may be a whoosh but-
Looks like a 15-17 Ecoboost Mustang
315 hp
0-60 in 5.2 sec
1/4 mile in 13.9 @ 98mphThose are bmw wheels
You’re right, I thought it was these
https://www.driveandreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/2015_ecoboost_mustang_review_10.jpg
Must be a 4 series varient- should have seen those huge reflectors.
Final guess- M440i
https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a34288846/2021-bmw-m440i-xdrive-by-the-numbers/
382 hp 0-60 3.8 sec 1/4 mile 12.8 sec @ 112mph
No slouch. Still impressed at the destruction in such a confined area.
Good AWD hookup and a total moron at the wheel.
This is part of the reason I don’t like biking on busy roads anymore. The higher power the car has, the older the driver tends to be. Then the lower power cars are all driven by tired people and door dashers who are trying to watch the TV they are missing by door dashing 70 hours a week, or dipshits in trucks so big that they won’t even notice when they run me over.

It looks more like a crash car, indeed.
shit. hit the pole at 50?
Looks more like 80+. That damage is WILD.
Yeah I was trying to estimate partly on the apparent size of the garage. It’s been a while since I drove a car that could take off if you didn’t pay attention
Mach 50 I think
That pole is incredible
That’s what she said
Thank you very much.
