New McLaren 750S Flaunts Its Evolutionary Styling And Upgraded Underpinnings On Film
The successor of the McLaren 720S features more changes and improvements than you would think
Following the highly anticipated debut of the McLaren 750S, the British automaker has released a series of videos highlighting the features of their latest supercar. Although the 750S shares some obvious similarities with its predecessor, the 720S, McLaren maintains that every aspect of the car has been improved and evolved, making it a significant upgrade from its predecessor.
The first video is a digital animation created by artist Ash Thorp, which seamlessly blends digital graphics with footage of the car’s engine and other components, offering viewers an otherworldly glimpse into the capabilities of the 750S.
To the untrained eye, the new model may appear strikingly similar to its predecessor but a closer inspection reveals changes to its design. The aerodynamic package, lighting units, bumpers, and trim have all undergone a redesign, giving the vehicle a refreshed look. However, the most significant updates lie beneath the surface. The twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine has been upgraded to produce 740 horsepower (552 kW / 750 PS), while the chassis setup has been revamped with a focus on enhancing the car’s sharpness and driver engagement.
The mechanical upgrades are showcased in a video called “The relentless pursuit of perfection”. Jamie Corstorphine, Director of Product Strategy, takes us through the new chassis setup which includes lighter springs/dampers, faster steering, and a wider front track. In the same video, Chief Engineer Sandy Holford highlights the more powerful twin-turbo V8 engine, the upgraded exhaust system, the aerodynamic improvements, and the enhanced technology inside the cabin.
Another video shows the McLaren 750S in action on the track, with its striking orange paint and black inserts. Additionally, the CGI-generated footage presents the supercar in
RV Driver Misjudges Lane Change And Gets PIT Maneuvered By Semi Truck
It is unclear if anyone in the motorhome was injured in the shocking crash
The driver of a big motorhome in Washington State recently got the fright of their life after being inadvertently hit by a semi-truck and crashing on I-5.
Footage of the incident filmed from the dashcam of the truck was recently shared to YouTube. As the video progresses, the large blue and white recreational vehicle (RV) can be seen slowly overtaking the semi before the driver flicks on their turn signal and begins to merge to the right and into the same lane. Things quickly go wrong from here.
The driver of the RV appears to have severely underestimated the length of their vehicle and changes lanes directly into the path of the semi. With nowhere to go, the front corner of the semi is struck by the rear of the motorhome.
We can then see that the rear of the RV slams into the concrete crash barrier, lifting it up onto two wheels and sending it to the left where it spears across the road. Fortunately, the barrier prevented it from crossing over to the other side of the Interstate but it did destroy the RV leaving it resting on a 45-degree angle on the asphalt.
Remarkably, the RV didn’t take out any other motorists while it was barrelling across the road. It is unclear if the occupants were injured in the crash but given the damage sustained to the vehicle, they clearly won’t be taking another vacation anytime soon.

Low-Riders Would Love This Bouncing Mercedes-Benz S-Class
Mercedes-Benz's E-Active Body Control system works alongside an important safety function in the S-Class
Four years ago, Mercedes-Benz’s E-Active Body Control suspension system went viral thanks to the ‘Free Driving Assist’ mode on the GLE that allowed the SUV to bounce up and down to help get it unstuck from deep ruts and sand.
Sadly, the GLE is no longer available with the trick suspension setup in the U.S. and instead, it is limited to select GLS and S-Class models. However, it still has all of the fancy features that it first debuted with and a video shared to LinkedIn by the head of corporate communications at Mercedes-Benz, Tobias Just, reveals that even the S-Class can bounce up and down.
As far as we’re aware, the E-Active Body Control suspension featured on the S-Class doesn’t have the same bouncing mode as the GLE and GLS. However, the S-Class in this video can be seen bouncing up and down as the suspension pushes up the front, rear, and sides of the luxurious sedan. Presumably, Mercedes-Benz’s engineers played around with the software of this S-Class to enable this function.
Having a suspension system that can do this on a vehicle like the S-Class certainly isn’t necessary but we know that the German car manufacturer uses E-Active Body Control in concert with the Pre-Safe Impulse Side system that raises the vehicle body slightly when the safety sensors detect an impending side impact. This technology helps to improve safety by shifting the force of the collision to the stronger structure in the lower part of the vehicle.

Street-Racing BMW 5-Series Driver Causes SUV To Roll Multiple Times In NY Crash
The driver of the BMW 5-Series immediately fled the scene but not before their license plate was recorded
Terrifying dashcam footage has been shared online that shows the moment a silver BMW 5-Series clipped an SUV, causing it to roll several times.
Video of the crash was recently posted to Reddit. It initially starts by showing an unidentified black sedan and the silver 5-Series speeding along a highway in New York. The two cars can be seen swerving through traffic but the BMW driver made a terrible mistake while trying to overtake a dark SUV.
Rather than making a smooth overtake, the 5-Series driver clips the front of the SUV. The force of this impact sends the SUV directly into one of the crash barriers on the side of the highway, causing the vehicle to roll multiple times before it comes to a rest on its wheels, completely destroyed.
All while this is happening, the silver BMW can be seen spinning around but appears to avoid making contact with any of the barriers. As if the 5-Series driver’s blatant disregard for the health and safety of others wasn’t on clear enough display for causing the crash, they then proceed to hit the gas and flee the scene.
The cammer briefly chases the BMW noting down its license plate before deciding that pursuing it any further probably isn’t the best idea.
The Redditor says that 911 was called immediately after the crash and that the occupants inside the SUV were injured but fortunately, they were not killed.

Car goes airborne at tollbooth
Chinese Driver Miraculously Survives After Slamming Into Toll Booth And Flying Into The Air
The driver of a sedan in China has been lucky to survive a terrifying crash after slamming into a toll booth divider in China that sent the vehicle flying into the air before crashing down.
The incident happened on November 24 at approximately 8:20 p.m. and was captured on CCTV. The shocking footage shows the sedan quickly approaching the Shihe Toll Station on the Shengyang-Dalian Expressway running between the cities of Shenyang and Dilian, the two largest cities in China’s Liaoning province.
For whatever reason, the driver approached the toll station with far too much speed and rather than driving into one of the lanes, instead slammed directly into a concrete divider. The rounded shape of the divider acted as the perfect ramp, sending the car skyward and at least 20-feet into the air. After catching some serious hang time, the car slams back to the pavement, landing directly on its roof.
Local media reports that fire crews arrived on the scene at 8:39 p.m. and found that the driver had survived the crash.
While the car landed on its roof, fire crews from the Sansanlibao Rescue Station were able to easily pull the man from the wreckage. It is unclear how serious the injuries that he sustained were but managing to survive a crash like this is quite the miracle.
It’s hard to know if the toll booth dividers were intentionally designed to act as a ramp like this but we suspect it may have been a design oversight. Either way, the shape of them may have helped the driver as if they were solid concrete blocks, the head-on collision could have been even worse.

Doing A Burnout In Front Of A Marked Police Car Ain’t The Brightest Idea
Seldom has the phrase “check your mirrors” been more hilariously proven than on September 16, when a 31-year-old man from Chisholm, Australia, provided local police with one of its easiest busts of the year.
According to Australian Capital Territory police, the incident happened at around 5:50 pm local time. The driver pulled out onto the road before stopping in front of the police vehicle and doing a burnout.
The burnout was nothing if not impressive, and the Toyota utility truck was capable of spinning its tires for around 20 seconds. The ensuing cloud of tire smoke nearly provided the truck with the perfect smokescreen to make its escape, but it didn’t really have anywhere to go and didn’t really seem all that interested in fleeing.
Full Video
https://youtu.be/EdBJ1FC4vjQ
The driver appears to have simply not noticed the police car and calmly drove away after performing its burnout. That it did not notice the cop is pretty surprising, though, because it was a fully marked vehicle, as a second video of the incident shows.
The burnout was planned, per the narrator of the second video, who did notice the police car, and did try to warn the driver of the Toyota – although he didn’t try that hard.
Potentially impairing the driver’s ability to check his mirrors, though, was the amount he’d had to drink. After the police officer in this dashcam footage pulled the driver over, they performed a roadside screen for alcohol. According to ACT Police, the man blew a breath sample of 0.151, more than three times over the legal limit.
As a result, his license was immediately suspended and his vehicle seized. The driver was also charged with drunk driving and the improper use of a motor vehicle.

Someone Tokyo Drifted into the guard rails
Some Ford Mustang Drivers Can’t Even Make Simple Right-Hand Turns
Making a right-hand turn at an intersection isn’t something that any motorist should struggle with but for the following driver, this simple task proved to be a little too difficult.
Admittedly, it’s not just a normal motorist featured in this video. Instead, it is a Ford Mustang driver and as history has taught us, some of them can be a little reckless and a little too eager on the throttle pedal. The owner of this Mustang is one of them.
This clip shared to Reddit shows the driver of a dark grey Mustang making a right turn at an intersection, just ahead of the cammer. Perhaps eager to make the turn before the cammer got a little too close, the Mustang driver hits the accelerator too hard and immediately spins up the wheels of the powerful muscle car.
For a skilled driver, this would be no problem; correctly counter-steering and modulating the throttle would be enough to control the slide. The Mustang driver wasn’t quick enough to react to the slide, however, and ends up careening into the curb and guard rail on the side of the road.
It’s hard to accurately determine just how much damage the pony car sustained in the crash but it appears the driver’s side front wheel has been pushed out of position, indicating some serious suspension damage. The trip over the curb likely also caused some damage to the bodywork that will need to be fixed.

Well, This Range Rover Driver Knows One Way To Avoid Red Lights
Waiting at red lights is one of those things that you simply have to deal with as a driver. However, what if we were to tell you that there is a simple and easy way to avoid sitting at a red light?
While recently browsing through the IdiotInCars thread on Reddit, we came across the following dashcam video that shows one motorist avoiding a red light. While it’s obviously illegal, we suspect this clip could encourage other drivers to do the same.
The video shows the cammer patiently waiting at a traffic light at 6:27 a.m. when a silver Range Rover comes into view. The driver of the Range Rover proceeds to turn right at the red light, something that’s perfectly legal to do in the United States. However, the Range Rover driver then does a sneaky U-turn and ends up in the right lane of the road with the green light. They then proceed to make a right turn back onto the road with the red light, completely avoiding the need to stop and wait for the light to turn green.
The maneuver has attracted quite a lot of attention on Reddit with more than 46,000 upvotes being made on the original post. Many have applauded the driver’s ingenuity, with one user noting that the driver had essentially just used the intersection as if it was a roundabout.
Obviously, trying to avoid a red light like this during broad daylight would attract a lot of unwanted attention, leading some Redditors to suggest that it’s only something that should be considered late at night or very early in the morning.

Distracted Ford Explorer Drives Over C4 Corvette In Utterly Foolish Crash
We’ve seen some pretty bizarre road accident videos over the years but this particular one, thought to have been filmed in Glendale, California, is one of the most bizarre.
The clip that was shared on Reddit was filmed by a house’s security camera and starts off by showing a black Ford Explorer cruising down the road, passing in between numerous cars. As the Explorer then approaches a small intersection, a blue Chevrolet C4 Corvette comes into view, looking to make a right turn into the same street as the Explorer.
Remarkably, the driver of the Ford fails to take notice of the Corvette and ends up making a left-hand turn, directly into the path of the C4. The motorist was so blissfully unaware of their surroundings that they actually drive up onto the front end of the ‘Vette and casually drive over the entire sports car.
If you look closely, you’ll notice that the wheels of the Explorer roughly follow the shoulder line of the Corvette and smash the driver’s side window.
It’s difficult to tell how much damage was done to the Corvette through this video alone. However, its bodywork appears to have held up quite well and it may only need a new window, wing mirror, and some touch-up paint to return it to its former glory.
We initially had difficulty in explaining how the driver of the Explorer could have missed the Chevy so blatantly. However, a closer look reveals that the driver was holding their phone at the time and either typing on it or holding it in front of their face during a call. This was obviously enough to take their attention away from the road and cause the crash.

KTM X-Bow GTX Has A Nasty Accident
KTM X-Bow GTX Has A Nasty Accident At Austrian Hillclimb
A camera has captured the moment that race car driver Dominik Olbert crashed his KTM X-Bow GTX while competing in April’s Pöllauberg hillclimb event in Austria.
In this clip from YouTube channel Motorsportvideos Luky M., Olbert can be seen taking a left-hand bend but appears to have done so with a little too much speed. He also looks to get a little too greedy with the throttle, briefly kicking out the tail of the X-Bow GTX before its rear wheels dip into the grass on the side of the road.
As soon as the KTM touched the grass, Olbert had no time to recover the car. One of the front wheels briefly lifts up in the air and the race car then slides aggressively to the left, firing off the road and into a steep grass embankment. The force of this impact destroys the front of the car and sends it into a violent spin.
One of the wheels is completely torn from the car and can be seen spirally through the air while various pieces of bodywork scatter across the grass hill. Photographers covering the event are forced to flee for cover to avoid getting taken out by the KTM. The car eventually slid to a stop on the side of the road.
Footage taken in the aftermath of the hillclimb crash shows that the car’s carbon fiber monocoque and roll cage remained intact during the crash, keeping Olbert safe.
The KTM X-Bow GTX is well suited to hill climb events like this. It is powered by an Audi Sport-sourced 2.5-liter turbocharged five-cylinder pumping out 523 hp and 479 lb-ft (650 Nm) of torque. Those are some serious figures, especially when you consider that the car weighs just 1,048 kg (2,310 lbs).

It’s a 5.9 from the judges for artistic merit…
BMW M4 Driver Shows How Not To Leave A Car Show
We’ve become quite accustomed to seeing drivers doing some pretty stupid things while leaving car shows and usually, these people are driving Ford Mustangs. We can now add the actions of the driver and passengers of this BMW M4 Convertible to the long list of stupid antics we’ve seen at car meets.
This clip was filmed somewhere in the UK and shows the gloss black M4 Convertible leaving a car meet. While the BMW is a four-seater, the two rear-seat passengers thought it would be a good idea to sit on the rear decklid of the car, rather than in their seats. As if that wasn’t stupid enough, the driver then decided to quickly accelerate to see if his two friends could hang on.
While one friend held onto the front passenger headrest, the second rear passenger wearing an all-black tracksuit didn’t hang on to anything and ended up sliding back across the decklid before falling to the ground and taking a pretty heavy hit to the top of his head. Fortunately, he quickly gets up and doesn’t appear to have been injured by the fall.
Making the incident all the more hilarious is the nonchalant reaction to a spectator with black hair who watched the whole thing. He appears entirely bemused by what he had just witnessed and in his head, was probably thinking about how foolish the group of friends were.
It’s a 5.9 from the judges for artistic merit…

Speeding driver comes unstuck causing 3 car crash
Reckless Mitsubishi Lancer Evo Driver Causes Three-Car Collision Near Sydney
Dashcam footage has captured the moment that the reckless driver of a Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII triggered a three-car collision in New South Wales, Australia.
The crash appears to have happened late in the evening of February 10, 2022 in the town of Yagoona, roughly 20 km (12 miles) south-west of Sydney. Initially, the rear-facing dashcam of a motorist shows the black Evo VII aggressively weave through traffic and narrowly avoids rear-ending a white cargo van that makes a left turn ahead of it.
The driver of the Mitsubishi then speeds through an intersection and passes the cammer. Unfortunately for him, there was a white Holden Astra parked on the side of the road just ahead and the driver didn’t have the space or reactions to brake in time. He can be seen jumping on the brakes and tries to thread between the parked Astra and a blue Ford Fiesta in the middle lane but there wasn’t enough space.
The Mitsubishi ends up clipping the rear of the Holden, briefly sending it up onto two wheels and into the side of the Fiesta. Both the Ford and the Mitsubishi grind to a halt soon after the crash. The driver of the Lancer Evo VII quickly opens his door and gets out but the video then cuts off, so it’s unclear what happened next.
It goes without saying that the driver of the Mitsubishi is solely to blame for the crash and we hope that local police were provided this dashcam footage to ensure that no one else is blamed for the incident. The cammer says that both the driver of the Evo and Fiesta were uninjured, although the Evo driver did seem “a bit out of it.”

Corolla Driver Runs Red Light, Crashes Into Cop While Being Followed And Filmed By Another Police car
They say that timing is everything and that’s certainly the case for this police dashcam video. At the same time lucky for the investigators, unlucky for one cop, no doubt tragic from the driver’s perspective, and farcical for us, timing truly is all things to all people in this video.
Shot from the dash camera of a police car and shared on Reddit, the video starts unassumingly enough as a Corolla turns right in front of a police officer and drives normally down a residential street. The video takes a weird turn from there, though.
The Corolla’s driver starts slowing down for the light, allowing the cop (who, it should be noted, appears to be following this vehicle purely out of circumstance, not intention) to get closer, and then it takes off, running through a fully red light.
Proving a point I never thought needed proving, the Corolla shows why it’s good to (checks notes) stop at a red light. By not doing so, the driver ends up t-boning another vehicle that was simply minding its own business. Surprisingly, though, the car it runs into is another police car.
I believe the term “slam dunk case” was invented for just such an occasion. What’s truly odd about this video, though, is that, along with there being seemingly no reason for this car to be evading the police officer following them, they go through the red light at a pretty relaxed pace.
Indeed, everyone seems to be pretty bewildered by the whole event. Fortunately, everyone seems to be okay with neither the Corolla‘s driver nor the cop reporting any injuries. The woman driving the car at fault takes the blame for the accident and seems pretty shaken up about it. The cops, meanwhile, just seem confused.
Not sure what lessons we can take from this apart from “It’s still important to stop for red lights when the police are around.”

Watch A Porsche Boxster Go Airborne Going Through An Intersection In Brazil
Roads are often not completely level. The wiser among us try to slow down for bumps, dips, and humps but they can sometimes be hard to see. That seems to have been the case for the driver of a Porsche Boxster in a video from Sao Paolo, Brazil.
In a video posted to Instagram by Arcanjo_lg, a Boxster going through an intersection has a very bad time. Bouncing aggressively after hitting what appears to be a dip around a drainage cover, the car actually gets a reasonable amount of air, with the back wheels rising a few feet off the ground. Unfortunately for the owner of the car, that sounds like the front bumper has gotten a pretty major scrape.
Fortunately, although the unexpected incident does cause the Boxster to veer off course a little bit, the driver does not fully lose control of the car and there’s no more damage. A small blessing, to be sure, but it seems like it was a pretty sudden and violent incident, so it does feel like a blessing.
It’s unclear if the Porsche‘s driver was speeding at all but it doesn’t seem like they were behaving irresponsibly, which can only make this more frustrating.
Either way, let this be a lesson that danger could lurk anywhere, so always keep an eye on the road ahead of you. You never know when the ground might fall out from under you, even if only briefly.

Road Rage Between Honda And Ford F-150 Shows Why You Should Keep Your Cool On The Road
A recent video of a road rage incident between a Honda Accord and a Ford F-150 Raptor is as fine an example as any of why losing your cool on the road is a bad idea.
The footage was shot on a dashcam (and smartphone) from a third vehicle on the Palisades Parkway. The person who posted the video claims that the Accord nearly hit them before the events you can see below.
“This Accord nearly sideswipes me, then decides to play chicken with the Raptor almost hitting him. I guess that pisses the Raptor off and that’s when video starts,” they wrote in the video description.
The two vehicles can be seen jockeying for position on the road, with the F-150 Raptor appearing to consciously be getting in the Accord’s way. That, however, may have made the situation worse.
As the Ford blocks the Accord, the latter’s driver goes on the shoulder and tries to dodge around a Honda CR-V but manages to hit the pickup truck, causing the car to lose control. The Accord slides off the road and into a cliffside causing it to flip, and it comes to a stop on its roof. Fortunately, the person who posted the video claims that the police told them that the Accord’s driver was “OK” following the incident. That’s an example of how quickly things can go extremely wrong at highway speeds.
It’s also an example of why getting in people’s way, even if they’re being an ass on the road, isn’t a good idea. Although the Accord is clearly the vehicle at fault here, the Ford, in my view, made the situation worse by blocking it and put other road users, like the CR-V’s driver, at risk of becoming swept up in this accident. All of which could have been avoided, as the driver of the POV car writes that their Waze indicated that there was a speed trap down the road from this incident.

You Won’t Believe This Parkour Parking Job From China
Parking can be really hard for inexperienced drivers but a specialist can fit in any kind of available spot in a matter of seconds. An award-winning performance that took place a few days ago – supposedly in China – was filmed by CCTV, and naturally, it went viral on Reddit.
As revealed by the footage itself, the incident happened on January 9, a few minutes after 9 o’clock at night. From the blue plates of the white sedan we can assume that it took place in China. The roads were empty and what appears to be a black Peugeot sedan approached from a distance. The driver who is clearly speeding, seems to have lost control of the vehicle, ending up crashing on the curb, heading towards four cars that were parked in front of a closed store.
What sounds like a typical drunk-driving accident – although we don’t have any information on the circumstances – unfolds in a pretty unexpected manner. The Peugeot flagship somehow ends up in the air, tips over one of the parked vehicles, and ends up landing in the single empty parking spot that was available.
Luckily the reckless driver didn’t hit the single car that was passing by at that time, and it seems that there were no injuries involved. However, he/she managed to destroy five vehicles in one shot including his/her own. In any case, the driver and any possible passengers are lucky to be alive after this crazy course. Thankfully for the insurance company and the owners of the parked vehicles, the whole thing was captured in CCTV footage. Without the camera it would be really hard to figure out what happened, watching the five vehicles parked next to each other.

Tesla Model Y Driver Skillfully Avoids Getting T-Boned By Honda CR-V
The infamous Moose Test is a good measure of a car’s emergency cornering abilities, but some people find that it’s not all that relevant given how rare it is for a situation like it to happen. However, as one Tesla owner might have found out first-hand, it can certainly have its merits in the real world.
In the video, which as Teslarati notes, was filmed in China, the Tesla, a Model Y, can be seen driving normally down a highway. After a few seconds of that, a Honda CR-V can be seen pulling into the U-turn lane from the opposite side of the road. However, the CR-V’s driver must have misjudged the speed of oncoming traffic, as they immediately pulled out into the road right into the path of the Tesla.
Model Y narrowly escaped from getting T-boned.
https://twitter.com/i/status/1480244538320900099
Thankfully, the driver in the Tesla was incredibly quick to react. After quickly braking and finding out that wouldn’t work, the Model Y‘s owner slammed on the gas and cranked the steering wheel, rocketing the electric SUV out of the way and avoiding the Honda’s front bumper by a matter of inches.
However, he wasn’t done yet, as his evasive maneuver had just placed him into the path of a bus. Albeit an easier, more predictable dodge, the Tesla owner swerved out of the path of the bus and went on his way as normal.
In the end, this ordeal was essentially a real-life Moose Test, and had the Tesla not benefited from its rapid acceleration and low center of gravity, things could have turned out much worse for all the involved parties.

This Motorcycle And Its Owner Took A Very Unexpected Dive In A Jacuzzi
Using your feet to move a motorcycle can be quite difficult for novices. Heck, even I’ve fallen over while wheeling a motorbike around but fortunately, my experience wasn’t quite as disastrous as this.
This clip was recently shared to Reddit and shows an individual slowly walking backward with his motorcycle from the garage into his living space. However, while looking to his left, the man accidentally places his right foot into the property’s jacuzzi. As a result, he falls directly into the water, bringing the motorbike with him.
It goes without saying that the layout of this house is extremely odd. This security camera footage from inside the property shows a laundry, kitchen, garage, and the spa all in the same room and having a jacuzzi at ground level like can prove to be hazardous.
It’s unclear what happens after the video cuts off but immediately after toppling over into the water, the man’s partner and dogs quickly rush to the scene. If the motorcycle’s engine was on at the time of the incident, it will have sucked up heaps of water and could be completely destroyed. For the owner’s sake we hope the bike wasn’t on and that it didn’t suffer any irreversible damage. And, it goes without saying, we do hope that the man didn’t suffer any injuries and was just soaked by his unintended bath…

Truck Attempts To Beat Yellow Light In Front of Cop
Cop In Unmarked Cruiser Watches Honda Driver T-Bone Pickup That Cut Him Off At Intersection
The driver of a Honda CR-V has been lucky to avoid serious injuries after being cut off by a pickup truck at an intersection in the U.S.
Dashcam footage of the accident was recently shared to Reddit and filmed from the dashboard of a truck that was driving behind the CR-V. According to the user who uploaded the video, his realtor was driving the Honda at the time and he was following closely behind while on the way to look at a property.
As the driver of the CR-V approaches the intersection, the lights turn to orange but without enough time to brake, the driver continues and enters the intersection. At the same time, the driver of a pickup truck traveling in the opposite direction turns to their left, directly in front of the CR-V. The Honda driver has no time to react and T-bones the pickup, briefly lifting it up onto two wheels.
Fortunately for all those involved, a police officer driving an unmarked Ford Explorer cruiser saw the entire accident unfold.
The uploader states that the CR-V driver was “an old guy” and suffered minor injuries in the crash.
While the driver of the pickup was obviously to blame for the crash, their insurance company apparently wasn’t too keen to pay. However, once the insurer was provided with this video, they quickly decided to pay up and settle the claim.

Impatient Mercedes Driver Violently Rolls Over And Crashes
Impatient Mercedes Driver Violently Rolls Over And Crashes After Attempting Reckless Overtake
Dashcam footage has captured the moment a Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupe was involved in a terrifying crash in the Netherlands earlier this year.
The rear-facing dashcam initially shows the cammer driving in the center lane of a highway while a silver VW Polo and a black C-Class Coupe can be seen approaching in the passing lane. Notably, the driver of the C-Class Coupe is tailgating the Polo and pulls out into the same lane as the cammer in an attempt to
The C-Class Coupe driver is unable to make an overtake before catching up to the cammer and is forced to pull back in behind the Polo. However, in doing so, the driver loses control of the car and cuts across the front of the cammer. It is unclear if contact was made between the pair but we can see the Mercedes violently fishtailing towards the edge of the highway and slamming into a steep grass embankment.
The force of this impact sends the C-Class soaring through the air before it rolls and ultimately comes to a rest in a ditch.
Various motorists pull over and rush over to the driver to see if they are okay. It is unclear if the driver was injured but, as far as we can see, it doesn’t appear as though any airbags were deployed, which certainly isn’t a good sign.
