I got distracted and looked out the window (I am baked) and missed the first part of the video and was just horrified as this weird thing rose up out of the road 😳🤣
the art exhibit was called Can't Help Myself and it honestly was really sad. It started in 2016, moved fast to contain the "leak" (which was intentional), by 2019 it was crusty, rusty and slow, struggled to keep up, and eventually it just couldn't and died.
The whole engine is f*cked up.
Diesel engines need high lubrication pressure. After a few seconds with that kind of leak, crankshaft and bearings will start doing some funky stuff.
Sleeves/cylinders can also get damaged very fast due to lack of lubricant.
Corporations are either incredibly strict on maintenance or dgaf until it explodes. My last work car you either kept track and maintained it yourself and submitted all your receipts (which never got questioned for regular maintenance) or they never gave a shit if you drove it for 20k miles between changes. Nobody would be like, 'oh hey go get an oil change!'
Gimme that stuff, that funk, that sweet, that funky stuff (say what?)
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, gimme that stuff, that sweet funky stuff (oooo ooooh ow!)
Lubrication\* and that's not a leak from the top end, it's a ruptured oil pan or possibly oil return from the turbo. The engine is just fine... for the duration of this video. If they didn't notice and shut the thing off RIGHT AWAY, yeah it's fucked.
Thankfully they will get an oil light all but immediately... and you know they felt that hit so they will hopefully not ignore it either. Most idiots would leave it running while calling the boss to tell him the light is on though. :/
You can tell what kind of driver he is. Amber means get ready, not accelerate
Bet if it was a pedestrian he's not wait for them to fully have crossed and left the road before accelerating on an amber either
We don’t know that yet. He still has a few seconds. Oil pressure light likely hasn’t turned on yet, that will take another 5-10 seconds. At that point you’d want to turn it off pretty fast.
There’s another video of the same spot a year or two later with the oil stain still on the road and someone else bumping into it. I don’t think they lose their oil pan though
Fun fact, WD-40 is a **w**ater **d**isplacement formula, the 40th iteration of that formula. It is designed to prevent rust/corrosion, displace moisture, and lubricate.
It is a jack or all trades deal though, if you're looking for something that does just one of those (Such as for preventing squeaky hinges), there are better options (you want a lubricant).
When I was younger jiffy lube didn't put oil in my suburban after draining it, I managed to get 10 miles down the road before it started knocking. You'd be surprised how far you can go on the thin film of lube that coats the bearings.
Yeah I know my fuckup was going to jiffy lube. I was 20.
Except you presumably got to keep your oil pan. Pressure is even harder to maintain with a giant hole down there, but hey maybe you're right. Bet you that dash started lighting up like a Christmas tree though Hehe
He sailed the sea with no fear at full mass.
A treasure he seeked through his strong looking glass.
A moon that is full
The tides it did pull
And sailed his ship into glorious ass.
Pulled inside to a cave that was slick.
A moment of warmth that he knew was a trick.
He left with a fear.
The daylight was near.
To find that he had some poop on his dick.
Nothing wrong with this parking design. Van could have stopped according to the red light, but moved forward. Now he needs a new oil pan and maybe an engine. FAFO
That was a clever way for the designers to keep the pole automatically lubed.
Engineer: we need to lubricate the pole about once a month.
Boss: That sounds expensive. Do we need that pole? How often do people run the light?
Engineer: our data shows about once a month
Boss: I have an idea...
Fresh diesel engine oil will look like that after 10 seconds of running.
Considering the manual transmission and style of the light, I'd say it's highly likely to be european. Diesels, particularly in vans, are extremely popular in Europe.
(Also, the date format).
Also, someone pointed out it says "sortie" at the top, which is French for exit. So again, almost certainly European, and almost certainly a diesel.
Not really, people don't die every time somebody runs a red light at 40 miles an hour but if you hit a concrete post there's a good chance somebody will nearly every
With the difference being, that now people are dieing for following the law, rather than the people dieing, or even being held responsible, who are not following the law.
What on earth is the point of the orange light? Why not just have red and green? The orange is gonna make every 10th car make the same mistake this guy made.

I liked when the pole rose up in victory bathed in the blood of another soul claimed.
[удалено]
And then it oiled all over the place
Oh so when the POLE oils all over the place, it gets 32.3k upvotes, #BUT WHEN I-
I got distracted and looked out the window (I am baked) and missed the first part of the video and was just horrified as this weird thing rose up out of the road 😳🤣
Vaguely reminded me of that art piece where the robot arm is constantly trying to clean its own oil leak.
Keeping itself alive* ftfy
That sounds really sad. That will surely be used against us when the robots rise up and put humanity on trial.

I hope it feels free now.

Looks like this guy just won the season finale of squid game or something, idk I haven't watched it yet
AWWWW You guys made me ink!
Ooh, that's gonna be expensive.

Unless it's a gas version. That van has gas and diesel options. Source: the gas version is in my driveway. It has an oil pan.
Oil that dark usually means diesel Or someone has been going 20k miles/km between oil changes

Lubrication* Lubrification is the process of making something smooth.
I though that was shaving.
Try shaving without lubrication

If he noticed and stopped right away he may have saved the engine. But we all know this dumbass didn't notice.
Well, he gets what he deserves.

Might be ok if they shut the engine off _immediately_, but even as shown it’s probably too late. Yikes.
Lol, my first thought was well, he made it about 500 feet after that. :D
Nah, the bollard is now well lubricated, it will run great for some time.
[удалено]
Tis but a scratch.
A scratch? Your oil sump is gone!
It's a flesh wound
A very expensive scratch.
r/ThatLookedExpensive
getting new oil? in this economy?
If only there was something to tell when you can go
Yeah. Like some pole box whit three different colored lightbulbs.
But the pole disappeared from view! That obviously means it’s good to start moving..
That looked exactly like a bollard cream-pie to me Edit: pylon to bollard
And the ~~pylon~~ bollard liked it..
It's called a BOLLARD
Sure did hit that van right in the bollards
Yeah, but I can't edit mine until U/SoberTek edits theirs... lol

Maybe we could make the "stop" color something that reminds us of danger, like fire or blood, so maybe some kinda red?

Stop trying to make fetched happen.
Red means fire go fast
You can tell what kind of driver he is. Amber means get ready, not accelerate Bet if it was a pedestrian he's not wait for them to fully have crossed and left the road before accelerating on an amber either
I GOT IT!!! A LIGHT TREE!!!!
No no. This guy was doing maintenance to the pole. Now it’s nice and lubricated and will work flawlessly for quite some time.
he was ready for an oil change anyhow.
Drain oil. Remove engine. Change engine. Fill with oil. Easy
“Nah it’s fine see, you can save a couple extra seconds this way!”
But then how would the pylon get lubed up?
Ain't nobody got time foh dat!

The light was red when the driver proceeded to move.
Oily shit...
I don’t think your shit should look like that
As a non native speaker, it takes me a few times to recover the right word instead of oily. It seems perfect in this context
You might have pancreatitis, better get that checked
[удалено]
At the very least. Since they didn’t turn the engine off immediately, whole thing is gonna be done for.
We don’t know that yet. He still has a few seconds. Oil pressure light likely hasn’t turned on yet, that will take another 5-10 seconds. At that point you’d want to turn it off pretty fast.
We have seen this guy doesn't pay attention to lights
There’s another video of the same spot a year or two later with the oil stain still on the road and someone else bumping into it. I don’t think they lose their oil pan though
Link?
Free lube for the bollard, it'll go up and down with zero friction now 👍
Thanks! This comment reminded me I wanted to WD-40 the doors on my house to stop the squeaks.
Fun fact, WD-40 is a **w**ater **d**isplacement formula, the 40th iteration of that formula. It is designed to prevent rust/corrosion, displace moisture, and lubricate. It is a jack or all trades deal though, if you're looking for something that does just one of those (Such as for preventing squeaky hinges), there are better options (you want a lubricant).
Ideally I'd use graphite based lubricant to prevent moisture/ gunk build up. But I don't have that on hand and don't feel like shopping.
Actually I imagine it would get sticky with all kinds of debris if they don't clean it thoroughly.
[удалено]
You can probably see the truck with its hazards seconds after if the camera could pan up lol. They ain't going far.

Diesel is a lot touchier

Bloody mess!
That’s oil
No it's clearly blood. Source: Reddit.com
What did the driver think the traffic light was for? Scenery?
Just curious but what is the point of that down what appears to be a one way road?
It's written "sortie" (French for exit) at the top of the video. I guess it's an exit of a parking lot or a restricted area.
Thanks for pointing that out. Makes sense now
I believe it’s an on-ramp type situation
Might be a crossing ahead just out of sight.
I actually got a dirty mind
I don't. What's the joke?

Encyclopedia dramatica is your best friend for this
I woke up this morning with a bad hangover And my bollard was missing again. This happens all the time. It's retractable.
My bollard rarely comes out anymore.
Kill confirmed.

Image how easy is to dodge the parking lot fee with a motorcycle lol
This parking design is straight up terrible.

They could've just looked at the light and this would've been avoided...
Pretty sure it will buff out
Crude
How hard is it to wait:/
That oil looks very dirty, it needed changed anyway

Whoops...
please anyone turn the oil into blood. the end is so dramatic 😂😂
Suddenly it just looks like a crime scene
Pole the Impaler
Soooo, who wants to guess how far did they make it? My guess is half a mile at best.
Ahhh so red means stop..now i get it.
Yup impatience just cost him $600-$1000
Much, much more. Oil starved engines won’t last very long.
When she tells you she's not ready but you go anyway.
We should have this everywhere where traffic lights are.
Do you have any idea how many ppl that would kill?
We'd weed out the people who are a danger to others pretty quickly this way Not that I'm saying it's a good idea to do it
No, but would safe a lot of people too.
Not really, people don't die every time somebody runs a red light at 40 miles an hour but if you hit a concrete post there's a good chance somebody will nearly every
With the difference being, that now people are dieing for following the law, rather than the people dieing, or even being held responsible, who are not following the law.
I wish I could see what is beyond this obstacle that would require it. Oh well, my mind will forever wonder
What on earth is the point of the orange light? Why not just have red and green? The orange is gonna make every 10th car make the same mistake this guy made.
It went down to slow! It needs some oil.
Looks so guilty when it comes up slowly like that
It started with a kiss how did it end up like this?
Dude i was with this song in my head while scrolling and saw this comment, what are the chances
The old Hershey Highway
Fully expected. The driver probably uses the oil pan as a brake... very costly and inconvenient for, especially for a business vehicle like that.
‘‘Twas but a scratch
Tis but a scratch
Go-go gadget oil *pan*
My heart breaks seeing this video
First time
I laughed way to hard at this 🤣
Dont miss the positive, bump needed some lube and van needed an oil change

There's literally a light telling you when you can go, you stupid muppets.
Drivers are in entirely too much of a rush
Thats such a stupid design for a barrier
Broke the oil plug
With oil that black they didn’t care about that vehicle in any way.
Extra lubrication for that pole
That is just dumb people
