The white Escalade at the end was so perfectly timed.

You're a bad person...
Easy there Satan
Goddamnit. Take my angry upvote. You son of a bitch, well done.
I love that there's just an endless supply of Escalades exiting the freeway.
I'm not sure the drivers waiting for the light to change love it
Getting stuck at a slow-strobing green waiting for the train of clones to pass by is easily the worst part of driving.
In Utah people try to bypass the warning lights and get killed by trains every day here. Some people try to 'drive around' the oncoming train if you can believe that. Yes, Utahns really are that stupid.
Yep, can verify. I live in Utah too, and that’s not all. Go to Utah county if you want to be constantly tailgated (no matter how fast you go), and Ogden is great if you love j walking (lived in inner city Ogden for years and it’s like a past time or something). Ogden is the only place I’ve been where I have sat at a red light and as soon as it turned green someone started walking across the street in front of me…someone she had been standing at he light. It’s happened to me twice, both times in Ogden.
Utah has some pretty good roads, but not the best drivers (I may or may not be included in that)
My cousin in Salt Lake would complain about the slower, bigger, and more full of kids in the SUV, the more likely they are to stay in the passing lane.
The Utah County part strikes me as odd. They’re like my go-to mnemonic/metonym when I want to imagine a US county that values non-individialism and social cohesion no matter the emotional cost. Maybe they value social cohesion and bumper-to-bumper cohesion equally. Hmm.
That's true in Salt lake also, constantly tailgated even though I go about 5 miles faster than the speed limit. I realize to a Utahn that's intolerably slow, but what really is irksome is that they are too stupid to understand the peril of tailgating someone like me, who is prone to slamming on the brakes just to see if they go flying through their own windshield.
As soon as they started putting TRAX (our public train transport) into place, my prediction was Utahns would be too dumb to get out of the way of the trains. And every day there's another story about a person who got run down by a Trax train because they ignored the warning lights or just didn't look to see if a train was barreling down on them.
But you're more lucky than I, I don't think I've ever seen a 'good' driver anywhere in Utah.
I read that as throbbing green, which I support.
They don't call him the green giant for no reason.
All we know for sure is there's more than 1. The previous one could be driving very very fast to get back up there and repeat.
Aah, dangit! My lemmy client doesn't have a progress bar for videos and I kept watching it wondering what the fuck is happening
That left front wheel… ooof
And it was like that the whole way which means it's likely why flying down an embankment happened in the first place.
Yeah all told the driver and the car did great. Good job to luck showing up as well
Yep, looks like it was already fucked before going off the road up above.
To me it looks like the wheel was dragged by the ground on the way down, and only after the jump in the end it got shaped like a nope
Edit: rewatching it makes me uncertain, though. Maybe the original is the only way to be sure ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
OMG they just keep coming!
What are the odds that 45 similar SUVs crash in the same way? That road must be a deathtrap.
Was this filmed in Utah? Because this stupid dangerous stunt is the kind of thing a Utah driver would do without any care for anyone else on the road.
Nope. Regina, Saskatchewan.
Yes, I know what joke you are going to make...come on get it out of your system. I'll wait.
I don’t. Tell me
In canadian, "regina" is pronounced like "vagina". Saskatchewan, everybody.
hehehehe you said "Saskatchewan"
Can we blame newfies for it?
newfies
Is this Canadian for non-Canadian speaker or something? And does it rhyme with aboot or with mangina?
Hey, at least we aren't as bad as Alberta.
Oh yeah, I went there!
Might help to look up pronunciation
I see stuff like this in Austin also, whenever traffic gets bad, they drive off into the grass to switch roads.
