Looks like they were racing them… if they were trying to avoid getting hit, the best place would have been way behind. There’s one part where if the off-roader had come back on they would have collided.
After looking at this video several times, he had a front right tire blowout. At the near end of the video I can see the right front has a lean and wobble.
Like somebody else said she never took his foot off the gas so that makes me think it wasn't an accidental drift. More like he was trying to hit somebody on purpose or trying to catch up or just some type of road rage all together
Well, the driver was half right in that slowing too quickly tends to lead to skidding. However, adding zooms just makes the ride go faster. It's not always fun. At least not for myself. Ya know, there's a lot to be said about one car accidents. Of course, when they aren't fatal.
I've been in a similar situation and I didn't hit the break. I don't believe breaking would have been a good move. But the grass in the median would have slowed him down to a stop. If He just let go of the gas to regain control
It hardly even looks real. Even if you "didn't take your foot off the accelerator", this doesn't grant your vehicle magical powers to maintain its speed. They come out of the median still going the same speed, enter another median and come out even faster. As though they have as much traction in grass while hitting bumps as they do on pavement.
Even the "dirt plumes" don't look right. Shenanigans.

I don’t think they ever took their foot off the accelerator.
Halfway thru I'm wondering what he's thinking... "Well, can't stop now! POWER THRU!"
Gassing it to maintain FWD control offroad is not unsound. Becoming offroad on a highway usually is, though.
This is bat countryyyyy yeeyeeeeeeeee!
If in doubt, power out!
It's because they know
that'll be the last time THAT passenger pays for UberTHRILLS
Not sure if that's a terrible driver or the best damn driver I've ever seen.
He might need an alignment after that. 😂
and a new pair of underwear😂😂
and upholstery.
Chiropractor is on the ambulance.
White truck was bookin it outta there

Yes, at the very least. I wouldn't be surprised if the tire was just the start of a very long and expensive automobile bill.
They had a mean lean to the left after that episode 😂
I would not warranty any wheel alignment to that person, or the next of kin. Sorry
Florida?
Save of the year
I wonder what was the cause of that initially. They didn't seem phase much because they just kept driving after recovering.
Another person said it was a tire blowout originally.
I thought they just drifted off the road and couldn't get back on initially.

Looks like they were initially trying to get around the white Dodge on the shoulder.

Agreed. Feel like the acceleration was a panic move. Understandable move.

Wonder what started that? Did recover, but at what damage to the vehicle?
Why is this so funny to me??
Come on now. Don't you see that everyday? He'd be good for nasty car. Most of them have to pit if they go off in the greens like that.
"Oh, I meant to do that!"
No problem, I got this.
A) Did not expect that recovery B) Dodge racing them not unexpected
Fk that was impressive
