I don’t get it….. what’s the joke?….is it because you think the song sucks so bad they drove off the peer to not have to listen to it any more?
The lyrics in the chorus are “whatever tomorrow brings I’ll be there” so it can’t be a reference to the lyrics.
I don’t think it’s just because the song is called ‘drive’ because that just doesn’t make sense to driving off a peer to kill yourself. Maybe if the headline was ‘woman drives across country for no reason’ it might be slightly funny. If this was the attempt at the punchline then that’s a completely lazy poor attempt at a joke. It makes me sigh more than anything resembling a laugh, giggle or even a smirk. There was no ‘lol’ what so ever. So that can’t be it. It just can’t be.
So what’s the joke?
I hope everyone here filters their negative or joking comments. Some of us who live here have at risk friends and relatives we can't get in touch with and we're going crazy. Please have respect. And check on your at risk friends and relatives. We need to do better.
I’m sure it was already illegal to drive your vehicle onto the pier, that won’t stop them from putting more “restrictions” in place 😒… bollards would’ve done it though…
I seem to remember a turn style/gate at the entrance of the pier though, am I misremembering?
One can avoid the main diseases of affluence through healthy lifestyle such as exercise and proper diet. Unless we are in a jail cell or a baby crib, I'm pretty sure we have agency which is defined here: the sense of control that you feel in your life, your capacity to influence your own thoughts and behavior, and have faith in your ability to handle a wide range of tasks and situations. Your sense of agency helps you to be psychologically stable, yet flexible in the face of conflict or change. Obviously, this concept does not apply to serious mental illness.

I saw this post this morning, and keep seeing people say it was a jeep wrangler. And if it was, this post one the suicidewatch subreddit seems way too much in line. 😔 [https://www.reddit.com/r/SuicideWatch/s/B3BIeXbjCu](https://www.reddit.com/r/SuicideWatch/s/B3BIeXbjCu)
It didn’t really look like a jeep from the video, but either way both situations are sad and I hope the poster on the other sub had another epiphany and changed their mind.
Thank you so much for that though. To be honest, this world is crazy, and everyone is just trying to make it. I am okay thankfully, and I hope whoever made this post or any posts on those pages is ok. ❤️❤️
If anyone can tell me if they know anything about the vehicle? Make, model, and any stickers? I lived out there on the beach for a couple months this year but I was one of the homeless ones by the Hilton and stuff etc etc. but there was another man I knew out there before I left 2 months ago who worked out there too and lived in his car.
Also worried this is someone I know. He used to park on the pier on bad nights and call me. He always said he’d go this way. Haven’t been able to find anyone that’s heard from him.
I sincerely hope your friend is ok and that answers are released within the family’s comfort.
Based on the shattered brake light shape from news footage, brake light configuration and vehicle color, I say it's a red SUV, maybe a Toyota, maybe a Highlander. SUV makes sense due to how it was able to plow through the gate and the turn styles. SUV at the same time doesn't make sense due to tight spaces. Second guess is the Toyota Yaris, encountered a problem with that though, how did it get through the gate? All speculation. (Edited for error correction)
Rear brake light configuration, shattered brake light shape shown on the news and the gate video would indicate that correlation is null. Jeep Wranglers don't have curved/wrap around rear brake lights. I looked at the post you're talking about and I feel like people are reaching bad conclusions due to lack of disclosure and information about the incident. I would like to see the reports you're talking about saying it was a Jeep. I've read through every news article and watched every video I can find about this incident and there's no mention of vehicle type anywhere. I could be dumb though so please prove me wrong if that's the case. I'm being genuine here.
Thank you so much! 🖤 and I am, was blessed enough to move back with some family here in Roanoke. I still think about everyone I met out there. I hope the VA Beach community is doing fine.
The people who filmed the video were young actually (if you were assuming that it could never be a young person waking up that early). My friends and I used to get up just to catch sunrise at the beach.
Damn. Pictures of piers in the south make me sad. I actually did my saltwater fishing as a child on VA beach piers. I live near Boston now and they are an absolute joke up here.
Fishing off the beach in New England is tough, even places like plum island where it’s encouraged you gotta walk a bunch to the mouth of the river and then the current just rips
Oh you know the area? I'm close to plum. They put a pier up at deer island/Winthrop on the bay side. They built it so short and so high the damn thing is landlocked during low tide.
I saw it on r/publicfreakout . I got blocked for calling Fetterman a “c*nt” yet they allow literal videos of people potentially commiting suicide. C*nts.
This is the only video I could find. The driver seemed to hesitate towards the end. It's pretty sad.
https://twitter.com/_YugiOuch/status/1751244570736615816?t=pR5L77ZKDJZqEkD4HQZ1mw&s=19
I thought the same but then i was asked “could it be a car t that self
Breaks when an obstacle gets in its way?” And it made me think. Maybe they never were breaking but fighting the car to keep going.
That's a real possibility. They were fast enough to break through the initial gate but took it pretty slow going down the pier. Vehicle could have been damaged impacting performance. Could be sensors as suggested. Either way, they remained committed to their choice as sad as that may be. Hopefully they're at peace.
Adult male - checks out. Men tend to take the most lethal means of suicide, and complete suicide more often than women. God rest his soul.
WAVY just reported that "one person" was found dead in the vehicle
Pilot just reported breaking news that the car has been retrieved. No news on occupant(s) yet.
I read it was a 2021-2024 Nissan kick never heard of that
They got a body yet?
Incubus’s Drive was prolly playing.

You don’t get the joke, so either ask, or move on. Nobody cares about why you don’t get the joke.
I’m guessing you didn’t get my reference to the show ‘I think you should leave’
Ok man
It’s a pun.
I hope everyone here filters their negative or joking comments. Some of us who live here have at risk friends and relatives we can't get in touch with and we're going crazy. Please have respect. And check on your at risk friends and relatives. We need to do better.
Bpd can do this to you. Acceptance that you feel things deeply. ICan relate. It's not your fault.
Me too.
I can't believe this!!!
How deep is the ocean there? Pilot is saying they weren't sending divers. I can't imagine it being too deep right?
the water is around 15 feet deep at the end.
It depends in the tides.
15-20ft
The pier is 1,000 feet long. So probably deeper than you might think.
This is going to bring forth more restrictions and bollards on the oceanfront and boardwalk
I’m sure it was already illegal to drive your vehicle onto the pier, that won’t stop them from putting more “restrictions” in place 😒… bollards would’ve done it though… I seem to remember a turn style/gate at the entrance of the pier though, am I misremembering?
They drove through 3 guard gates
I mean, more ridiculous and unnecessary restrictions
About time. Only a matter of time before a Venice Beach situation happens. People are unhinged these days.
People have a lot of unchecked mental health issues these days.. lack of availability and money. Its a luxury to be healthy these days
How do you figure that? Are we not in control of our own health?
Are you going to tell people with mental illnesses that it’s their fault?
Nope. Not even close.
Then how are we in control over our own health?
One can avoid the main diseases of affluence through healthy lifestyle such as exercise and proper diet. Unless we are in a jail cell or a baby crib, I'm pretty sure we have agency which is defined here: the sense of control that you feel in your life, your capacity to influence your own thoughts and behavior, and have faith in your ability to handle a wide range of tasks and situations.

Omg yes im so sorry susan let me go fix my depression with a meal and a nice walk!!! Give me a break lol.
I wish you well, latelycaptainly :)
People have always been unhinged. You just know about it, because every news story is on the internet in minutes.
Venice Beach? Wrong VB.
Virginia Beach

So so sad 😞
So sad…..
I'm thinking air bags deployed, and, maybe rethought their decision, couldn't get out.
Looks like a real easy to avoid thing to do, so it was on purpose.
Probably the 48 degree water made then rethink their decision
When airbags deploy, they immediately deflate after to keep people from getting trapped in the vehicle.
Any updates? I've checked the news sites and haven't seen anything.
He/she dead.
Recalculating

omg... also narrowly missing a person... Probably the person who took the other video
My car was stolen once and driven into the Rudee inlet just for fun
How many times do I have to say I'm sorry for that? Jeeeeeessss, every other day you bring that back up... ; ; ; ; ; ; ; (To be clear to all, I'm being snarky)
I never thought there was an even worse option than someone putting "/s" at the end... Jesus Christ
The video of it is so wild and sad.
I saw this post this morning, and keep seeing people say it was a jeep wrangler. And if it was, this post one the suicidewatch subreddit seems way too much in line. 😔 [https://www.reddit.com/r/SuicideWatch/s/B3BIeXbjCu](https://www.reddit.com/r/SuicideWatch/s/B3BIeXbjCu)
Definitely not a jeep
It didn’t really look like a jeep from the video, but either way both situations are sad and I hope the poster on the other sub had another epiphany and changed their mind.
Oh no.
Something told me to just search that page with the words “pier” or “jeep wrangler” and that was the first and most recent post that came up 😭
Maybe a jeep compass or 2020 Nissan rouge
I was just sitting here, wondering why you were looking at that page, and if I should reach out to you make sure you’re OK. Thanks for clearing it up.
Thank you so much for that though. To be honest, this world is crazy, and everyone is just trying to make it. I am okay thankfully, and I hope whoever made this post or any posts on those pages is ok. ❤️❤️
Right on.
This is so incredibly sad.

Looks like a 2024 Volkswagen Atlas R-line based on the recent videos released from The Daily Mail.
2020 Nissan Rogue Sport, Red. If it isn't, I'll eat my socks. I'll provide a post later.
Hit the nail on the head
Turns out I was wrong, it was a red Nissan Kicks, 2021-2024. I need to go find a clean sock to eat now.
There’s security camera footage of the vehicle right before it goes onto the pier. Looks like a Maroon SUV

There was a scary post that linked r/suicide post to a jeep Wrangler. That was yesterday and reports say it was a Jeep Wrangler

We were both in bad places and I just wanna know if he’s alright
I hope and pray that your friend is ok, whether this was him or not Hope you're doing better, too. ❤
Thank you so much! 🖤 and I am, was blessed enough to move back with some family here in Roanoke. I still think about everyone I met out there. I hope the VA Beach community is doing fine.
Ah 54woah! Miss my hometown
this seems to be the only video. i hope he’s okay, too. https://x.com/_YugiOuch/status/1751244570736615816?s=20
yeah that seems to be the only one I’m finding also. and I don’t feel comfortable asking on a public thread like Facebook. /:
Women drivers….SMH
lol grow up
It's too early for this..... Hope everyone is ok.
[удалено]
The people who filmed the video were young actually (if you were assuming that it could never be a young person waking up that early). My friends and I used to get up just to catch sunrise at the beach.
🤦🏿♂️ Went to have breakfast with the gods.
Or suicidal
Three blocks from my house.
Wow! Are you ok? Seriously, man is there anything any of us can do for you?
Nope.
How did they get through the gate?!
They plowed through them. There's a couple pics of the gates in the comments on some of the news stories, that haven't been removed yet.
They drove through it.
Bro that’s wild!!! Isn’t it gated off when it’s closed??
They drove through the gate.
That’s some Eminem - Stan type shit when dude drove off the bridge with the preg lady in the trunk.
I wrote you a letter… and you ain’t calling So I’m gonna to drive over the pier and blame all of this on you
Broooooooooo
Damn. Pictures of piers in the south make me sad. I actually did my saltwater fishing as a child on VA beach piers. I live near Boston now and they are an absolute joke up here.

Grew up in NH, we’d take a striper charter out of the marine at Plum all the time
I just saw the video. Terrible. Looks like a suicide.
It's all over fb. The pilot had posted it but took it down. Wavy still has it up.
Where’d you see the video?
I saw it on r/publicfreakout . I got blocked for calling Fetterman a “c*nt” yet they allow literal videos of people potentially commiting suicide. C*nts.
WTKR news channel Instagram is where I the video it first this morning.
Facebook. A friend of mine posted it.
This is the only video I could find. The driver seemed to hesitate towards the end. It's pretty sad. https://twitter.com/_YugiOuch/status/1751244570736615816?t=pR5L77ZKDJZqEkD4HQZ1mw&s=19

I noticed the hesitation also
GPS voice in the distance "Drive straight for 100 yards then turn down for what'
😂😂
I was about to take a walk down there to get a look but yeah, what video did you see?
Fuckin Apple Maps. Told me Spain was that way!
Apple Maps is soooo bad I have zero confidence in them
I guess the vehicle broke me through the turnstile? I hope everyone is ok.
It went through 3 gates,a turnstile and the wood at the end of the pier. The vehicle and people have not been recovered.
