20 Comments on PSA- Why You Might Not Want To Ride in a Car Like This
I’ve pulled a few dead bodies from car wrecks, it’s indeed a miracle she survived. Automotive safety features are designed to protect the occupants when they are in an upright position with the seat belts engaged. Please advise your young friends and family to keep this in mind: at sixty miles an hour you are nothing but a delicious soft, squishy projectile surrounded by a thin, crunchy sheet metal shell.
I can honestly say that I’ve never ridden in that position.
Done plenty of dumb shit, just not that one.
If it bothered her back to sit normally, why didn’t she sit in the back seat or get a brace? And why put the smelly shoes near the air vents?
She’s lucky she’s alive. Wow.
What a poorly written article.
How about where the fuck this happened?
Journalism is indeed dead.
Heyyy, maybe we need an airbag installed in the POTUS desk.. And deploy it next time he puts his friggin’ feet up on it so disrespectfully..
It annoys me to see peoples’ feet when I’m driving on the road.
The bottom of their feet must bring out the muslim in me. lol
She would have been safer riding with me. If you want to see me get real belligerent, try putting your feet on my dashboard.
I’m surprised car dashboards don’t come with warning labels. Trial lawyers are falling down on the job that they haven’t sued manufacturer yet for passengers doing dumb stuff.
lol!
…and some silicone lube on the steps of Air Force One, for when he comes skipping down with his little dangling limp wrists.
You shouldn’t sit on the gear shifter either. I mean as long as we’re stating the obvious.
They are there – on the back side of the visor.
get in
sit down
shut up
hang on
This is also why you should never tailgate.
I’m a bad boy. I brake check tailgaters. Thinking about getting a bumper stickers that says so.
It happened ‘through’ the windshield. 😉
Lost in all of this is that her boyfriend almost killed them both because he was following the vehicle in front of them to close, and/or he was allowing something to distract him.
If you can’t stop fast enough to avoid ramming the vehicle in front of you if they jump on their brakes, you are either following way to close, not paying attention, or both.
Only very rarely is it truly a traffic “accident”, there is virtually always negligence involved.
If you mean tapping the brakes to wake the bastards up, I could use one of those bumper stickers too. 😉
I’m a brake tapper too. If they don’t get the hint, once had a Dodge van, you could hit the emergency brakes and let them off immediately.
At speed and with no load, you would leave a cloud of smoke but slowing was slight. The look of panic was priceless.
I miss that van.
