quade 4 #2 September 1, 2013 SPOILERS! The funniest thing about it to me was how after it happens, the driver puts the cars in reverse and s-l-o-w-l-y backs away. Also, HEY, this wasn't a dashboard video from Russia. Who knew that was even possible?quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heatmiser 0 #3 September 1, 2013 I'm pretty sure the driver of that car screamed out the names of Oceania Flight 214 pilot's names "Sum Ting Wong, and Ho Li Fuk" right about then! What you say is reflective of your knowledge...HOW ya say it is reflective of your experience. Airtwardo Someone's going to be spanked! Hopefully, it will be me.

oldwomanc6 60 #5 September 1, 2013 In 2006, I was driving from S.F. to LA on PCH. It was super foggy. I stopped for gas, and a RV pulled up.. Both the windshield and the over-cab sleeping compartment were busted out. The driver got out covered in blood. A few rocks came down on them and practically took them all out. Scary stuff!lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ryoder 1,590 #7 September 1, 2013 oldwomanc6 In 2006, I was driving from S.F. to LA on PCH. It was super foggy. I stopped for gas, and a RV pulled up.. Both the windshield and the over-cab sleeping compartment were busted out. The driver got out covered in blood. A few rocks came down on them and practically took them all out. Scary stuff! A friend of mine was working as an A&P mech at a small local airport. One morning, he was the first to arrive at the airport and found a couple who had flown in, and were waiting for someone to show up. The woman was covered in blood, guts, and feathers, pleading: "Is there somewhere I can clean up???" Well, it seems they were on final to land at the airport, and meanwhile a duck was on final for a local pond...and their paths crossed. The duck punched right through the plexiglas in front of the right seat."There are only three things of value: younger women, faster airplanes, and bigger crocodiles" - Arthur Jones.

quade 4 #8 September 1, 2013 turtlespeed It may be prudent to look at the top of the mountain from the very start of the video. Hey, I know how to pull a J-turn. At a bare minimum my reverse is quite a bit faster. quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turtlespeed 226 #9 September 1, 2013 quade ***It may be prudent to look at the top of the mountain from the very start of the video. Hey, I know how to pull a J-turn. I wonder if the driver noticed from the start. I'm guessing, no. I don't know how much power those cars have, but I would have roasted the tires a bit going into reverse.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know how much power those cars have, but I would have roasted the tires a bit going into reverse. I would guess no as well... When I drive, I look at the road ahead and surrounding areas...
