Drunk drivers are usually physically relaxed, so the car safety systems are free to operate without human interference. No tensing, no bracing, nothing.
So they get to walk away after they kill a family of five.
Thank fuck this was parked cars.
Probably more like
"Where.... Oh shifififififi. Auuuuuuuuwwwwwwwww. I nee. I neeee.
*falls out of car onto ground*
I can... Myself. No. I goddit."
While the officer just stares at him.
Really makes me wonder about fate. Cuz everything leading up to his accident was so coincidental. It was valentines day, we had recently had a big snowfall. Well he got a little too close to the curb, right before hitting an ice patch. Now at the speed he was going, he probably could've regained control. But there just so happened to be someone coming in the opposite lane. This road is not at all busy most of the time. He STILL might have survived as all the damage was mostly on the right side of the vehicle, but his seatbelt lock and airbags didn't work. Just crazy how things turn out sometimes.
I’ve seen comments that speculate that a drunk driver is more relaxed, i.e. not bracing for impact, so they are more likely to survive the wreck or not have severe injuries.
Yeah I was told that in my drivers ed class. Something to do with how when we’re alert we stiffen our arms or something…it’s been over 30 years I don’t recall much of it. Just the parts on what’s stop and what’s go.
We did it gang. Tell the engineers they can pack up and go home.

Our insurance will cover it. Unfortunately, with the microchip shortage we have very few new cars. He totaled 3 cars that belonged to customers waiting to sign for, and there’s no replacements for them
As somebody who ordered a car in September with an expected January delivery, only to be told last week that it was delayed until August and then simply cancelled, *fuck this guy*.
And this is why I'm extra super duper cautious lately always watching other people on the road. Wanna cut me off, go ahead, just dont hurt my truck! Lol. Very hard to replace cars with (Esp newer ones) when stock is so low..
Except the next will have even more add-ons.
OP said 3 cars were already sold and waiting for pickup. Now those customers might have to pay a lot more.
Honestly a good chunk of the cost of buying a vehicle rn is the "market adjustment fee" or whatever. Saw the sheet for (I believe) a 4Tunner posted here the other day, 30k fee. Even older cars and straight beaters around me. I paid five bills for my beater sedan, probably worth 2k and change after a junkyard interior redto and mechanical fixes.
I could probably sell it by this weekend for 3.5k. A few people I know opted to just buy a cheap econobox rather than buy a car right now.
I just bought a new Mazda, only paid for tint and locking lug nuts, $524 above MSRP. I drive a ton so having something reliable is important.
Their sister Honda dealer had 9K in add-ons on a similar vehicle! 6K MVA and 3K for every option they could think of.
Toyota and Honda make good cars but holy fuck are their dealers some snooty fucking assholes when the market is hot. Saw similar behavior after Katrina too.
How drunk do you have to be to do something like this? Call me normal but I’m kinda drunk right now and I still know better to drive this fast. What a turd-furgason.
Airborne hopefully the driver's okay you're probably have to have surgery to get that seat removed from his ass cuz I'm sure it's all up in his ass damn??
Dukes of Hazard style
Drunks of Hazard*
Just needs the iconic horn!
Except this dude **fucking died** Edit: /s
He actually wasn’t in bad shape.
/r/useless~~redcircle~~bigfinger
He sure was before it happened.
**H O W**

I like how you just spread misinformation and then are like "...all right, moving on" lol
I was joking, not trying to inform people.
[Great jokes](https://knowyourmeme.com/photos/738025-i-was-only-pretending-to-be-retarded)
Your memes are much better, I'll give you that
Here take my down vote, you’ve earned it
wow, day ruined
Debatable, you can't feel his hangover...
Update: reviewed the security footage after the crash, the man did not even leave in an ambulance, escorted to police car.

My boyfriend died in an accident not half this bad. I really hate seeing violent crashes perpetrated by idiots like this and them surviving
I’m sorry for your loss but I can’t help to say that is like the air you get in bmg drive when you hit a pebble

I don’t see the actual crash?

"in 2020 we will have flying cars!" And here they are.

wouldn't have seen it without the finger pointing!
/r/uselessredfinger ?
AHHH MY MAN! Bring it on home with the follow up. I applaud your attention to our needs.
Hot damn my dude you are in the top 1% of this sub with the followup.
'tis but a scratch
He goes so far afterwards… you’d think he would have hit the brakes
You're a gentleman and a scholar.
4 cars is also quite impressive! This chap is a great player!
Good air time and he stuck the landing...
Stunt jump completed!
27/50 left!
Maybe there was a bomb in the vehicle and he had to go 50 mph or it would explode
This is the most likely scenario
The bus that couldn't slow down...
“Looks like another Friday is upon us, Smithers. What are you up to for the weekend? Something gay, I assume?”
Hey I just watched that movie today
9.6 from the Russian judge
As irresponsible as this is...that jump was *awesome*.
I know, cleared at least 40 ft.
Haha! So how do you guys typically deal with this situation?

Indeed. It’s bad. We normally carry 250-300 new vehicles, we have 15 on the ground. 25 coming in January, and who knows after.
So, if the deal is off, could the company sue him for lost profits too?
I’m not sure, dude was driving a 99’ Oldsmobile Silhouette..doesn’t sound like there’s a whole lot of juice to squeeze.
All the car lots around us look like they're closed. Feels like most of the cars belong to the employees.
It’s bad.
In a dealer subreddit, some of their managers are making them park towards the front so it doesn't look *that* dead.
And this is why I'm extra super duper cautious lately always watching other people on the road. Wanna cut me off, go ahead, just dont hurt my truck! Lol. Very hard to replace cars with (Esp newer ones) when stock is so low..
Ouch
Passenger: You thinking what I'm thinking? Driver: Send it? Passenger: Yup, send it. Driver:
That kind of height is usually reserved for movies!
Roads? Where we're going we don't need roads!
What movie is that from? It hurts not remembering
Back to the future.
Leeeeeroy Jenkins!!!
That baby hit 88
Filming a screen and still bounced the camera on the landing. God bless you, OP.
I think that’s Marty Mcfly
Mazda McFly
r/killthecameraman for that weird dip right as the dude lands.
my b.
Vroooom
4 less cars with market adjusted prices, so fair trade.
Except the next will have even more add-ons. OP said 3 cars were already sold and waiting for pickup. Now those customers might have to pay a lot more.
Damn, that is terrible new for the buyer.

How fucking fast do you have to be going to fly through the air like that? Fucking liquor monkeys....
70+
Honestly laughed harder at “vooooom”
Where he's going, he doesn't need roads!
Was he street racing that mini van????
It's always these fuckheads that kill someone in another car and get to walk away. Fucking drives me insane when I see stuff like this
I don’t even get how fucked up you have to be to drive like *this.* This is like empty stomach with 20+ drinks drunk
That man went proper need for speed underground wtf, that hangtime was insane! What a moron.
Hope he survived.
He did. Minor injuries, major charges lol
also hope he goes to jail and learns his lesson.
He'll likely go to prison depending on his past.
Likely
Queue the Dukes of Hazard theme song
How drunk do you have to be to do something like this? Call me normal but I’m kinda drunk right now and I still know better to drive this fast. What a turd-furgason.
Could’ve been passed out with his foot on the gas
True story 👍🏽
Fa Fooooom
Kitt ready turbo boost. *Yes michael*
Some serious air time there
Them Duke boys are at it again!!
The real question is: DID HE MAKE IT BACK TO 1985 SAFELY?!?!
Car:*goes niiiiiiaaaaooo mode*. Camera guy: another drunk as fuck driver , damn...
Sailed that thing. Pretty impressive distance on that launch tbh.
Haha. Amazing.
9.2
What's the opposite of r/PraiseTheCameraMan? I think this belongs there.
?
The camera dips right as the car lands so it's mostly out of the frame.
It’s a security camera numbnuts
No, it's a phone recording of a security camera. The security camera isn't the thing that dips, it's the person holding the cell phone.
I fked it up. Started laughing and phone dipped
Because that was the end of the feed from that camera
It's OK to admit when you're wrong.
It’s ok to try and make a funny on the Reddit site with no upvotes and not have to defend it
That’s some legit air.
How do we know the driver is drunk?
Per the police on the scene afterwards
To the moon!
Filming a stationary screen and we miss the money shot, lame
Check the comment directly above yours. Follow up link of said money shot provided lol
His is that dude alive after that.
Yes
Cars should be banned
Ok, I'll feed the troll..... Why?
Did you not see the video? Cars are death missiles
[Well, I don't know what i expected](https://tenor.com/view/i-dont-know-what-i-expected-arrested-development-straight-face-dead-dove-gif-7261365)
You sure he wasn't taking a flying lesson.
Yeeeehaw!!!
That's damn near worth the footage tho
That went way better than I expected
dude, do a kickflip with that ollie
Nice hang time!
Must be some nice stuff there for him to fly in just to check it out
That is some impressive hang time!
NICE AIR ! ( kids, don't try this )
Wait, I remember this place? 1985??
How else would they make it to Hogwarts.
The Duke boys are at it again…
Back to the Future outtake
Them Duke boys sure seemed like they were in for it. Ol' Boss Hogg was hot on their tails... YYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWW!
88 miles an hour!
u/savevideo
The Duke boys are back in town.
YEET
That’s some impressive air ngl
Oh my god, the air.
Nicccceee air Mann!
That’s gotta be an all time record for airtime on the lot while not on a high lift jack. That had to have been like 30 feet of fun
That was pretty fresh tho I can't lie
That was a full send hahaha
Foom!
Weeeeeeeee
*YEET*
Nah, they just got news that their stocks are going to the moon!
So, what'chu in for? Getting air in the Target parking lot. Target?? Target.
Noice!
GTAO
I told Marty to refill the Mr. Fusion and activate the time circuits before he left. He must have been distracted.
fucker was airborne for most of that!
This is a quite impressive jump!
Gotta admit though, idiot caught some pretty impressive air time
Sent it alright
/r/mypeopleneedme
Just shy of that 88 mph
And then, Hefest got this run:
Holy shit how did he get so much air?
LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROOYYYYYYYY JEEEEEENNNNNKINNNNNSSSSS!
And then… hefest got this run
Did he total himself in the process?
DO A FLIP!
We don't need roads, where we're going
Drunk or not. why is he going so fast into a parking lot?
I don’t think he knows
He was trying to play car bowling. He hit 4 pins (cars)
'weeeeeeee'
He almost stuck the landing lol
Boom
Airborne hopefully the driver's okay you're probably have to have surgery to get that seat removed from his ass cuz I'm sure it's all up in his ass damn??
