See that guy in the terminator Mustang flying headlong into traffic on the other side of the road? Don’t be him. Seriously.
This video was taken yesterday at one of events being held during the huge Mustang Week celebration in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. As you’ll see by the existing burnout marks in the road, show goers were pulling out onto a busy, multi-lane road and doing rolling burnouts while leaving a show and this guy was the one who lost the handle and luckily didn’t kill someone with a direct T-bone or worse as his car flew out of control, over the raised median, and into the path of other vehicles. The scene is all kinds of whacked as someone with a cell phone managed to get up close after the fact before the police shooed them away and was able to capture the car facing the wrong way on the other side of the road with a gaggle of damaged vehicles around it. Cut to the shot of the guy leaning on the front of the cruiser and cuffs and you get the idea.
Obviously the guy didn’t plan on wrecking a bunch of stuff, probably losing his license, and his ability to get car insurance for the foreseeable future, but that’s sure what the aftermath looks like to us. Stuff escalates pretty quick and this video proves it. It is easy to just scream, “This guy is an idiot!” but the reality is that we have all been in a situation when the car got away from us in a place where we were probably doing something we shouldn’t have, the majority of us got away with a scare, this guy was not so lucky.
Be careful out there. You never know when your ticket is the next to get punched while screwing around.

Just how often does this exact scenario play out? I’ve seen too many of these. Cuffs though? Really? How about the trooper also taze him and pull a pit maneuver on his stopped car?
