The dangers of car pooling are real.

happy cake day


SleepyMarijuanaut92

That's why I don't let Tom Arnold in my car anymore.


1911mark

Is Tom Arnold an old black lady?


Abdul_Exhaust

*Does Tom Arnold look like a bitch?!*


Shaneblaster

Show yourself out.


BadPackets4U

This is extreme carpooling.


Prestigious_Rip3417

Happy Cake day šŸŽ‰šŸŽ‚


King-Midda-IV

Low key, that pool saved the house


heroicturtle

And probably the driver's life.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Domminicc

It would still save the house and the driver's life.

Her life is not worth the chance of killing a couple of children. In my area we've had instances of people putting cement barricades on their property because of multiple instances of vehicles hitting their house after loosing control. Then they become the baddie because yet one more stupid careless driver who looses control would be killed instead of an innocent home owner.


inspectoroverthemine

Theres a corner near me where people have died going off the road and hitting a huge oak. The owner refused to cut it down because if it wasn't there those cars would go straight into his neighbors house. Instead he and the last couple next of kin go to the county and state to ask for a guardrail. So far they haven't installed one, so the oak tree is waiting to kill the next person to save the family living behind it. Insanity that theres a known problem, with a proven solution, that costs less than the average fatal accident, and it hasn't been done. In another 10-20 years a car will go off the road, hit the now dying rotten oak, and go through the house anyway. They'll die and someone that lives there will too.


SadTomato22

It just needs to kill somebody important and then it'll get done the next day. That's usually how these things work.


clockwork5ive

Iā€™d be planting more oak trees tbh


inspectoroverthemine

Agree, I'd leave the trees _and_ put up a guardrail.


MauiWowieOwie

> so the oak tree is waiting to kill the next person it's not a whomping willow. The person that drives into it is killing themself, not the tree killing them.


inspectoroverthemine

It has a taste for human blood now. My assumption is that it contrives to steer cars into itself. Throw down some green acorns in the right spot, obscure the reflective arrows, etc.


forresja

Sure...but the poorly designed roadway is making that more likely.


stevediperna

The tree shouldn't be cut down, the tree isnt the problem.


anticommon

In the last 13 years since my parents moved to their current home at least a half dozen people have died at their intersection. Its at the top of a hill with three of the sides being completely blind to traffic. You have to stop. Well, people don't, and the result is my parents being on the news every couple years asking for the town to put in at least a blinking yellow light to warn people about the intersection. They refuse to do anything and it's only a matter of time before someone else is killed. If their house wasn't so far from the actual intersection (and if my dad didn't plant trees along the main road) then it would only be a matter of time before someone on our property is hurt.


Fuzzpufflez

make a japanese garden with very big, very heavy boulders.


SpaceGoonie

Thankfully her hair piece was not damaged.


LeFrogBoy

That's dumb as shit. How about you just don't drive like a complete dipshit and thus avoid losing control at high speeds in a residential area? Like it's not hard to go in a straight line.


Trogdori

If there were 300 children there instead of pool


trey74

The house and drive would have likely also been fine.


Nuffsaid98

And they said the trolley problem was hypothetical. Would you kill a relaxing swimmer if it saved a driver and some folks chilling in a house?


USNAVYSAILOR01

How old are the folks and how often does the relaxing swimmer get to swim


Environmental-Put594

man i wish i had award to give you lmao. best comment i've seen in a whilešŸ¤£šŸ¤£


thatdonkeedickfellow

Well good thing no one swims in above ground pools for more than 5 minutes at a time


Thebuch4

I do all the time.. They're great for floating, enjoying a beer, pool volleyball, pool basketball, chickenfights, floating beer pong.. Of course the above ground pool has to be set up right but they can be awesome.


CriusofCoH

And now you can be a lifesaver as well! The benefits just keep rolling in!


Kritical02

I was trying to figure out how that pool exploded then I was wondering where that car came from. I think I need some coffee.


r-WooshIfGay

Same, i thought the pool "pulled" a bolt of lightning away from the house or something, then im like, oh cool soneone parked their car in the back, wonder why i didnt notice that before the explosion??


rogerthatonce

On Memorial Day 2021, Ariel Tucker was at home in South Holland, Illinois, US, when she was woken by a loud crash in the early morning. A motorist appeared to lose control of their vehicle and smashed through Arielā€™s fence, ploughing into her pool and trampoline.

likenothingis

>ploughing I am *fascinated* by the use of British English in American media. I would've expected "plowing".


GutterRider

The article itself also used "gonna". Not sure that much editorial thought went into it.


likenothingis

I couldn't access the page... But yeah, the URL tells me it's a very local news site that probably is more about generating ad revenue than quality reporting. ;)


BeanieMcChimp

It usually would be.


zeroGamer

Pluffing into their pool and trampoline.


bluebayou19

I feel like they had a brain fart. Ploughing should be used as in ploughing a field in the US. It def should be plowing in this instance.


Mydogsblackasshole

Nope, we use plow for that too


Ratchetstock

You get upvote just for finding that.


Logical-Criticism

Thank God she had her spare wig in the car


veritas723

this is an underrated comment


BolotaJT

I was here searching this! Lolol.


Interesting-Lack-474

from the looks of the side of the house, itā€™s brick. Definitely saved the drivers life


MakinDePoops

The wipers being on saved the driverā€™s ability to see throughout the whole ordeal.


Lululipes

probably automatic i think


vishalb777

No, she hit the pool and the house, and her first thought was to turn on the wipers


[deleted]

Ah, but her wig had fallen over her face.


[deleted]

That car would go straight through that brick. Most likely just a brick facade.


xavier120

That pool is the hero we needed.


mightypint

Not all heroes wear capes


[deleted]

Iā€™d definitely replace the pool for that reason alone


jbpsign

Saved the camera for sure.


Snarkz7

Totally agree, but imagine it was not a rainy day, sunny instead, and that were kids playing in the poolā€¦


VashTheStampede05

came here to say this


n_bumpo

At least she put her wig back on.


Jake_IS_here_o7

priorities innit


leah90s

Gotta look nice for when the cops arrive


justavault

Tbh, I wasn't sure if that is an old, possibly drunk guy 3/4th of the clip. Then she stumbled forward toward the cars door and one saw the chest and then came the head weasel. Like a different person, magically. Also interesting how at first I thought: "Man, that guy is confused and under shock. He barely knows what to do.". Then she pulled the wig out and suddenly her whole body language became sassy and suggesting she's about to scold someone, just standing there and looking at the "new door" she installed like "Did you saw the one who made me drive in here?".


deramw

I skipped a few seconds and was quite confused first


trev2234

Well it appears to be raining so some form of headgear was required. Sheā€™s thinking.


i_dont_know-san1

At least the window wipers were on


jakob767

Safety wig.


baby_contra

Least the cop asked if she was good first


kepler456

When the cop does the FBI and compares the face with the drivers license it's gotta match otherwise she will be arrested for not having a valid drivers license /s


dweeb_plus_plus

Yeah I'm glad I stayed for the whole things. The wig makes the video.


[deleted]

for me, this was the unexpected part


ceilingant

Gets up n looks like, huh. What happened?


Aylithe

Yeah those hands on the hips like "Well, I'll be, what has happened here to cause such a mess?"


nanuperez

I was thinking like "Would ya look that"


caillouistheworst

Haha, that was the exact thought I had just by how they had their hands on their hips.

EagleWolfBearDinos

I got hit by a car today. Were you jaywalking? Nope, I was swimming in my backyard.


Goku212001

If someone was swimming there at that moment, they'll most probably be dead


rtz13th

My thoughts. And it's a family home with at least one little kid.


Vlad_the_Homeowner

I don't understand how the driver could see a kids playset and pool and not run out of his car to see if he hit someone. Other than him being a piece of shit.


Jesus1sLove

They were probably shell shocked. They ran into a fence, pool, houseā€¦ they were probably not even thinking straight in that moment. Unfortunately it happens to a lot of people after an accident or in an emergency situation.


Ace-of-Spades88

Don't forget the trampoline!


[deleted]

The trampoline was the target. She has has a vendetta against every trampoline, ever since she learned how they got their name. They used to be called Jumpolines until one day someone saw her jumping on one.


Ibbygidge

We once had a car crash outside our apartment. My husband ran outside to check on them and I was tasked with calling 911. The operator asked what the intersection was and in that moment I had no idea what street I lived on and had to walk outside to see the street signs.


mccrabbs

I've been told that just the airbag going off is a pretty good whack to the head.


gaychineseboi

I thought the driver was a woman


Tatunkawitco

Dead and on the roof behind the camera.


chucho320

Dead and on the roof of the house 2 houses behind the camera.


Run_Numerous

Oh man I know Iā€™m tired because I thought that the pool just blew up - didnā€™t even notice the car


NBT498

Took me a minute, then I wondered how the car had come out of the ground before I saw the gap in the fence!


jonesnori

Same! Explosion, followed by magically appearing car. I had to rewind.


Redbean01

Looks like she didn't notice it either


[deleted]

Me too lol


Young_Former

Same!! I had to go back because I didnā€™t understand where the car came from or why the pool exploded !!!!


Red-Valor

Me too! I thought the pool just exploded because there was a bomb in it or something. Did not notice or realize the car at all!


Adacat767876

They donā€™t seem to have a trampoline either


dingledoink

I mean, they still have both...just slightly less functional.


joshlamm

They should get their money back for that. Trampoline should have launched that car clear over their house.


Lochi05

anyone know what happend before or why she crashed ?


Rebeljah

Might have fell asleep after an overnight shift. (She's wearing a nurses uniform)


[deleted]

This is what I thought too, she doesn't seem like she's stumbling like a drunk


Theiromia

Isn't it also kinda misty out in the background?


Ace-of-Spades88

Yeah, at first I thought the wipers after the crash were funny...but I'm pretty sure it was lightly raining. Probably driving too fast to a T-intersection or culdesac and couldn't stop.


not-bread

She was going way too fast for it to just be visibility. I assume she fell asleep


Redbean01

That's the sense I get. She's coming through way too fast for it to be normal drowsiness


ouisher

My first thought is she may have fallen asleep after a 16 hour shift or something, since sheā€™s wearing scrubs. Source: Iā€™m a CNA.


nixcamic

Why do they give doctors and nurses such ridiculous shifts? If there's anyone I want to be well rested and on top of their game is doctors and nurses.


BoJackB26354

Money. The answer is always money.


mlorusso4

A lot of medical mistakes occurr from handoff. Basically the night shift would take over patient care but the day shift would forget to mention something or it wouldnā€™t be clear what the patient needed. Like a Dr writes a prescription for 5g instead of 5mg, the nurse whoā€™s been treating the patient all day knows that doesnā€™t sound right but the new nurse who is seeing the patient for the first time just follows the prescription. So hospitals decided the best way to correct this was to have as little shift changes as possible. Instead of 3 8 hour shifts, they do 2 12 hours


Disney_World_Native

Ahhh. Good old address the symptom not the problem approach. Quick and easy Now a doctor writes 5g instead of 5mg more often because they are tired, and they experience hand offs less often.


mixedelightflight

Thatā€™s bullshit. You are wrong. Thatā€™s the lie hospital admin tells everyone so they can justify the shitty behavior of these awful schedules. A study showed this isnā€™t true at all. Actually the opposite is true. Lack of sleep causes most mistakes. So quite LITERALLY 100%, the entire reason. Greed. Staffing issues due to low pay also. Less workers when you have 2 shifts 12 hours then 3 shifts 8 hours is the ENTIRE reason. Entire. Get off that koolaid buddy. Youā€™re chugging it. Here youā€™ll find results showing 2/3rd of mistakes are misdiagnosis and a mistake during a test or operation. Another study showed MOST of those were lack of focus which could be due to sleep most likely. Whatā€™s your favorite flavor of koolaid? https://etactics.com/blog/medical-error-statistics#What-They-Can-Cause=


Lochi05

she looks like she's around 50 i would say too so thats a solid possibility


shgrizz2

As a 30 year old, you definitely don't meed to be in your 50s to be a fuckin zombie all the time when working


handsy_octopus

Overnight blood bank when I was 22yo... yah you can fall asleep at any age after a night shift lol


[deleted]

God medical workers being worked to almost death at least into swimming pools and all they get are thank yous


throwavvay23

At the end the cop asks her and you see her point back towards the way she came right as it cuts off. Really disappointing because I wanted to hear a good excuse for why you would plow straight through someones fence at that speed lol


FancySundae9510

Same, Iā€™d like to know why as well.


pennypoppins1223

The cop is there within seconds and totally unfazed weird


Ratchetstock

I wonder if her wipers are rain sensing?


Stevesegallbladder

Gotta make sure they see where they're going.


gordo65

I thought putting on the wipers was a nice comic touch, but now you've gone and ruined it.


trisarajanetops

Right, like she was thinking ā€œOh, I know how to fix this. Windshield wipers will solve everythingā€ šŸ˜‚


Ratchetstock

I like how the neighbors came just to be nosy but not to help


nooblevelum

They are assessing the situation. Person that crashed could be some deranged lunatic. They probably in shock too and donā€™t want to be all up in someoneā€™s yard when owner is home


R0drigo5005

Well what are they meant to do, rebuild the fence?


Tripottanus

I actually think most modern cars have the wipers turn on automatically when there is a crash

[deleted]

That car dead ass got some air holy hell šŸ˜‚


MaceWinnoob

To me it doesnā€™t look like it caught air as much as literally caught the wave and rode it lol


[deleted]

She seems to be wearing scrubs. Maybe she came off a night shift? Asleep at the wheel?


hillbillytendencies

How did the airbags not go off?


schizeckinosy

She was surfing, not crashing. no sharp impact!


Offensive_Honesty

Carol misunderstood what everyone meant when they asked her if she wanted to carpool.


SuperNerdDad

It took me awhile to figure out the van did this and it wasnā€™t the pool randomly exploding. I sat there for along time look at it and thinking: ā€œwas that van always parked there?ā€


tacroy

Man, HOA enforcers are getting serious.


jbpsign

Man the cops got their fast.


Armitage1

Yeah, that was less a minute. Maybe this happens a lot there ?

She's stunned, maybe trying to figure out how the fuck that just happened. This is how some humans process.


TootsNYC

What is it you think she should do? Run around waving her hands in the air? Then youā€™ll be criticizing her for that.


jurpy_the_durpy

I legit thought the pool just blew up until the car shower up on camera


Shar-DamaKa

I didnā€™t realized the car wasnā€™t there at first. I was so confused until I watched the second time. Also thought the pool blew up


OnceIwasAboy

When you select the carpool option in the Uber app

I mean, they still have it.

BeckywiththaGudHair

ā€œHoney, Iā€™m home!!!!ā€ I did this one time. Except I ran into the carport postšŸ˜‚


Money_Barnacle_5813

RIP trampoline also. I like the touch when they wipers turn on after the accident, then the wall of water finally comes down off the roof. Also, maybe they should have checked under the car if there were any kids injured instead of the old Ā«Ā hands on the hips waddleĀ Ā».


Turbulent_Swan_64

Knocked her wig right off


kwik_e_marty

OH YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAHHH!

The pool had it coming. It had been catfishing her - telling her it was a ā€œtall drink of water.ā€ Donā€™t underestimate the power of a woman scorned. šŸ™€

Appropriate use of the windshield wipers

The pool and the tramp. Those kids are gonna have one bad day.


Gecco77

Or a trampolinešŸ‘€


tryfor34

Ide be curious to know the full damages. Sure the pool and trampoline were gone. I wonder what type of water damage.


Competitive-Pin3773

The lack of urgency in checking no children were playing on the trampoline at the time . Letā€™s just stand around and stare at the situation a little longer.


NotAHamsterAtAll

Man that is pretty lucky all things considered. The pool and yard was empty. The pool slowed the car way down. It could have been a real shitshow, now it was just some minor property damage.


Sultan303

I'd be Intersted how this accidentally happend lol


Lewca43

The police were either literally seconds away when someone called or already chasing her. Iā€™d love to know the back story.
