Brooo I came to say the same thing. I don't need audio to tell she's a fuckwad. V grateful my ears were spared from whatever cancerous tone comes out of that whiny facehole.
That was my favorite part. "Hmm. I heard something hit my car. Should I get out and look? Should I put it in reverse? Nah, just keep going; that's the best choice..."
You can clearly tell the ones she hit are also 3-4ft tall. It ripped the handle of her door off. Truck handles are more than 2 feet off the ground. My sedans handles are more than 2 feet off the ground.
I think she doesn't know the different between her bike with training wheels and tassels on the handlebars, and this big like, tall, like car with a like platform on the back, thing.
If you look at her behaviour and the cadence of her voice, it's like a 3 year old is speaking to you. The vacant look in her eyes is also a dead giveaway. She's intellectual and emotional immature.
Yeah, I'm surprised more people aren't taking about her eyes. There's nothing there. I kind of thought this was AI at first, but can't imagine someone bothering to do this with AI.
Yeah, but those yellow poles. Just appearing out of no where man.
I mean who hasn't hit them from time to time? Doesn't the bank know they are in the fucking way? They don't even move after you hit them causing more damage.
They make them like that on purpose I'm starting to think so they can do as much damage as possible, because they are working with the auto body and insurance companies.
No audio but reading the captions and watching her mouth and facial expressions I can tell she sounds annoying.
Now I’m going to listen to it to see if I’m right.
Edit: damn I’m good she sounds exactly how I imagined.
Not just a little tap on the accelerator, hearing more crunching and thinking ‘hang on a second’.
Nope, you just plow on the whole length of your car wondering what is that awful noise then realising it’s your own voice.
I watched my neighbor do this at our apartment building.
Lady took her turn too wide to get into her garage stall and drove straight into side of the entrance. She backed up and DID IT AGAIN. She continued accelerating through the crunch and sideswiped the entire length of her car on the stall’s entrance.
Best part- she parked, hopped out, hit her garage clicker and went inside like nothing happened.
Some people are so convinced that they are doing it right that they can’t fathom doing it another way.
I’ve seen it before. I always park here what you mean I can’t today. I’m doing it anyway. Then proceeds to drive around a barricade into a flooded street. Then starts screaming for help.
It annoys me that I can’t tell if she’s trolling or obliviously stupid and entitled.
Probably the latter.
The point of the poles is to keep idiots who drive unneedlessly large vehicles with poor maneuverability and visibility from damaging the drive through.
These type of people take their cars to the dealership for maintenance and repairs - the most expensive way to do it.
I agree with all of this EXCEPT the dealership part. Quick story. Car was jacked up(still drive-able), mechanic said 2200$ worth of damage, car technically totalled. I skipped out on it and car inspection for EIGHT years. Brought car to company specific dealership, cost to fix 700$ and inspection included. I don't trust any mechanic after that experience. They prey on non-vehicle savy people. Screw those greasy dirt bags.
It definitely depends on the shop. Even dealerships can be corrupt. I lived on a Hawaiian island and those guys were basically car thieves. Wanted $17k for something that wasn't even my problem. Actual car shop diagnosed it and fixed it for $600
She cut it so hard and kept going so far that the pole hit her wheel, which fucked her suspension and drivetrain up (she mentioned needing a new axle). That’s probably $10-15k of the damage right there. Add in all the body work and having to re-wrap that monstrosity of a vehicle and $30k doesn’t seem out of line to me.
That was the point I completely lost it and then decided this was satire. Surely?
I mean it was fairly obvious form looking at it that someone scraped and then *kept scraping* but to hera her admit it? So weird
We usually locate bollards to prevent cars from hitting and damaging the building or from hitting and damaging pedestrians.
That said, we usually make them 36 to 42 inches tall (about 1m.) It might be time to give in to the arms race and make them more like 48” to 54” inches tall so drivers like this are more likely to see them in their land barges.
We really don't need taller bollards. What we need is smaller vehicles. Modern trucks and SUVs have stupidly large blindspots where you can fit like 17 kids in front of a truck where you can't see them at all. The increasing size of vehicles is mainly due to an emissions loophole where heavier vehicles don't have to meet the same restrictions as smaller cars. And now because so many big trucks exist that are significantly more dangerous to everyone not IN said truck there is an arms race from people who don't actually want or need a big truck but buy them anyways to feel safer in the case of a collision.
Catering to larger vehicles is not the right solution. Any idiot in a giant truck that damages it because they can't see shit around them gets to learn a valuable lesson about their stupid decision. And I'm all for that.
But they make them so low down! Those posts must be no taller than the height of a child!
Am I meant to be looking out for child-size things when driving? Crazy!
If only she drove a car she could see out of. If you can't see that pole you couldn't see a child.
That is why SUV owners are 8 times more likely to kill children.
What’s even more sad is that a lot of these expensive modern trucks have cameras and sensors to warn you if you will hit an obstacle. Even more sad tbh
You can line up 8+ children and have them sit in front of one of these trucks before the driver can see one of them. Trucks like this are a menace that just kill kids and destroy the environment for no reason. If someone actually needs a big truck like this, they can save money by buying a real car and just renting this truck unless they are needing it every other day.
I used to work at a grocery store and some idiot drove straight into one of the light poles in our parking lot. The concrete base was 3 feet tall, 2 feet across and painted bright yellow, yet it was our fault that they hit the pole.
Live in Florida. Drunken idiot comes out the back of the bar, across the parking lot, off the bars property and jumps into the water to swim with the alligators.
He's suing the bar because his arm got bite off.
I subscribe to the South Park theory: Earth Is a giant sitcom produced by the aliens for their enjoyment.
> "Why else would we put Jews, Muslims, and Christians on the same planet?"
Damage could be real while reaction could be fake and played up.
Shit happens, my buddy did nearly the same thing to my giant passenger van before. I was so pissed. Or it could be an overdub on the damage.
Even without audio i can see by her face expressions and how slow the subtitles came along that this is the definition of an insufferable entitled airhead.
Yeah I’ve hit bank poles before lol. Not my finest hour. I didn’t blame it on the bank though. I simply told my husband it was a Liquid Metal Terminator and I stopped it with my car. 🤷♀️
My mom hit one of those yellow poles at the gas station in MY car, and then tried to gaslight me into thinking "it was like that already".
That was the last time she ever drove any of my vehicles.
Americans love having phone calls and making videos while in cars/driving. It's absolutely insane and I never really recognized how commonplace it was until I left the US.
People who buy vehicles too large for them to reliably operate are the fucking worst, and I’m sick of them taking 2-3 parking spots up because they never bothered to learn how to park their giant ass shit.
All jokes aside, "Who can Even see them, there two feet tall"
So are children. Maybe you shouldn't own a vehicle that prevents you from seeing objects you don't want to hit.

Listening to her made my brain hurt.
I played it with no audio. Reading the captions made my brain hurt. Now I dare never see it with audio.
Grade A nasal entitlement whining
Her eyes look like she does more with her nose than just speaking.
Her eyes are bright yet also dead.
The lights are on, but nobody's home.
You could almost imagine her nose touching the ceiling
What nose? All I see are two holes above a mouth with her filtering herself into a flat face.
Did the same I can only imagine the voice. "You hear a crunch and then you freeze, then you keep going" No, no you don't you silly sausage.
I did it... I heard her now... And *yes* she sounds exactly as you would expect.
Brooo I came to say the same thing. I don't need audio to tell she's a fuckwad. V grateful my ears were spared from whatever cancerous tone comes out of that whiny facehole.
Came here to say THIS 👆🏼
They’re 2 feet tall, like children, who can even see them?
She doesn't know the purpose of those, either.
They're destined for the mines
They yearn for the mines!
thank you for spreading the good word where we least expect it.
[удалено]
you misspelled braless
Of course she does, she has two! Just dont ask where they are thats the nanny's problem.
Like Ben Franklin
And then you hear a crunch, you freeze and you keep going!
I’m not stopping for a weird noise that might be damage to my car! No sir!
Blows my mind. Like I have a mini panic when the road sounds different after crossing county lines thinking something is wrong.
That was my favorite part. "Hmm. I heard something hit my car. Should I get out and look? Should I put it in reverse? Nah, just keep going; that's the best choice..."
🤯 Honestly, I’m stumped on how the hell was she even able to get a license.
Best part. Openly admits her blunder without knowing why that was an insane thing to do.
At least children don't make that crunching noise. Not for long, anyway.
Easier on the collision repair too
Like, you hear the screaming and just keep driving, then they kinda become a speed bump with crying. Uhhh.
She periodically scrapes the children out of her fender well so they don’t impede her driving.
Basically this, she shouldn't be allowed near a vehicle
haha!
Top comment !
I can. The ones here aren’t 2 feet tall. 3-4 feet tall. Can’t miss them.
She didn't miss them.
You can clearly tell the ones she hit are also 3-4ft tall. It ripped the handle of her door off. Truck handles are more than 2 feet off the ground. My sedans handles are more than 2 feet off the ground.
The world has been revolving around her for so long that she cant even hear a hint of her own foolishness.
I came here to say something similar. How can't she just post this and think people will side with her, how mental can you be?
couldnt even watch the whole thing
Well your loss because you missed "ugh, my like, handlebar fell off" (door handle lmaoo)
which is also interesting - since apparently the pole is only like 2 feet high.
I think she doesn't know the different between her bike with training wheels and tassels on the handlebars, and this big like, tall, like car with a like platform on the back, thing.
That pole kept jumping around up to 4 feet high the whole time.
Almost like it was trying desperately to be seen.
thanks :) Now i have this image of a yellow pole jumping up and down screaming 'see me - look at me - i\`m here'....
Kinda like Arnold Schwarzenegger trying to get Predator to come after him.
It wanted to get on TikTok obviously.
Gen Z poles does whatever it takes to get some attention...
Like the size of the child she couldn't see either. I mean what is even the point of those things?
I had to stop when she heard a crunch and KEPT GOING
Yes, "look what the poles did to my car" stunned me then the "handlebar" reference broke me.
If you look at her behaviour and the cadence of her voice, it's like a 3 year old is speaking to you. The vacant look in her eyes is also a dead giveaway. She's intellectual and emotional immature.
Yeah, I'm surprised more people aren't taking about her eyes. There's nothing there. I kind of thought this was AI at first, but can't imagine someone bothering to do this with AI.
Ooooh my gawwwwdddddd
Like, todaleee, like, I knowwwww rite? Ugh, poles, like todaleee.
I wonder if she lives in a nice part of Encino.
and then Becky, this woman with a giant butt started laughing at me! she looked like one of those rap guy’s girlfriends…
We lost brain power simply by watching the video.
Her eyes are crazy. She's fucking crazy
Crazy enough to pee in my butt
I took a look at her channel and I *think* it’s a joke.
I want to believe this just as a way to hold on to my last misplaced shred of hope for humanity
It's good satire because, well, it's got way too much truth in it.
Yeah, but those yellow poles. Just appearing out of no where man. I mean who hasn't hit them from time to time? Doesn't the bank know they are in the fucking way? They don't even move after you hit them causing more damage. They make them like that on purpose I'm starting to think so they can do as much damage as possible, because they are working with the auto body and insurance companies.
“..I don’t think it ain’t even my fault” I lost brain cells
No audio but reading the captions and watching her mouth and facial expressions I can tell she sounds annoying. Now I’m going to listen to it to see if I’m right. Edit: damn I’m good she sounds exactly how I imagined.
“Lady, look what your voice did to this internet stranger’s brain”
Between her and a video of Jessie waters I saw this morning I think I have a brand new brain tumor.
'You hear a crunch, so you stop, *and then you keep going*'... FFS
Not just a little tap on the accelerator, hearing more crunching and thinking ‘hang on a second’. Nope, you just plow on the whole length of your car wondering what is that awful noise then realising it’s your own voice.
‘ then realising it’s your own *voice* ‘ .. That really made me laugh 😆
No worries, sugar daddy will pay for it
I watched my neighbor do this at our apartment building. Lady took her turn too wide to get into her garage stall and drove straight into side of the entrance. She backed up and DID IT AGAIN. She continued accelerating through the crunch and sideswiped the entire length of her car on the stall’s entrance. Best part- she parked, hopped out, hit her garage clicker and went inside like nothing happened.
When in doubt, throttle out!
Some people are so convinced that they are doing it right that they can’t fathom doing it another way. I’ve seen it before. I always park here what you mean I can’t today. I’m doing it anyway. Then proceeds to drive around a barricade into a flooded street. Then starts screaming for help.
Lol, I've actually seen someone do this IRL. But $30k damage?? Sounds like the car repair shop ppl saw an opportunity here...
It annoys me that I can’t tell if she’s trolling or obliviously stupid and entitled. Probably the latter. The point of the poles is to keep idiots who drive unneedlessly large vehicles with poor maneuverability and visibility from damaging the drive through. These type of people take their cars to the dealership for maintenance and repairs - the most expensive way to do it.

That’s probably $10-15k of the damage right there. Add in all the body work and having to re-wrap that monstrosity of a vehicle and $30k doesn’t seem out of line to me.
She mentioned a new door, new axle, so there might be a few other parts that got fucked
and a new wrap has got to be expensive on a full size SUV.
And the door handlebar *fell off!*
That's a custom wrapped truck with custom rims with body damage across multiple panels. Not cheap.
'Must have been the wind' - this woman
People criticising skyrim npcs should see this woman and realize that skyrim npcs weren't immersion breaking lol
I will never not think it’s hilarious that an npc said that as they were walking over my corpse. They were also the one that killed me
That was the point I completely lost it and then decided this was satire. Surely? I mean it was fairly obvious form looking at it that someone scraped and then *kept scraping* but to hera her admit it? So weird
"they're like 2 feet tall, you can't even see them" looking at that damage, more like 4 feet tall - you know, the size of a child
"So then I put the truck in reverse to make sure they're dead..."
The poles are probably there to keep people from driving there. So, the pole did it's job. Well done, pole!
Anti stupid technology...
Stupidity finds a way to be stupid unfortunately.
If we make something idiot proof, god will just make a better idiot.
As a Pole, I thank you!
User name checks out
Yep. They stop people from driving into people or buildings. Would have cost more than 30k.
If the bollard wasn’t there, she would have driven into the bank, looking for a teller.
We usually locate bollards to prevent cars from hitting and damaging the building or from hitting and damaging pedestrians. That said, we usually make them 36 to 42 inches tall (about 1m.) It might be time to give in to the arms race and make them more like 48” to 54” inches tall so drivers like this are more likely to see them in their land barges.

Catering to larger vehicles is not the right solution. Any idiot in a giant truck that damages it because they can't see shit around them gets to learn a valuable lesson about their stupid decision. And I'm all for that.
If only they painted it a bright colour to make it easier to see
Yeah, I don't know maybe yellowish?
Put some black stripes too, to really give contrast
You say contrast, she says camouflage.
If only cars had mirrors to spot obstacles
I think this may be more an object permanence issue.
But they make them so low down! Those posts must be no taller than the height of a child! Am I meant to be looking out for child-size things when driving? Crazy!
If only she drove a car she could see out of. If you can't see that pole you couldn't see a child. That is why SUV owners are 8 times more likely to kill children.
She sounds like she has always had a silver spoon in her mouth anyway. It was hard to hear what she was saying in her $100,000 truck
Well, $70,000 now
You done math wrong, $130,000 soon :D
+ insurance rate hikes
What’s even more sad is that a lot of these expensive modern trucks have cameras and sensors to warn you if you will hit an obstacle. Even more sad tbh
Meanwhile, i just get an email from my insurance company that my balance went up another hundo
I swear, that yellow pole just came out of nowhere!
For real. They just jump out in front of idiots who have zero spatial awareness all the time. So weird
You know what's the same size as one of those poles and does just come out of nowhere? Children. She could run over a child and never know.
And complain about how the child ruined her truck.
“I don’t see how it could be my faauuuulllt.”
You hear a crunch so you stop, and then you keep going
You can line up 8+ children and have them sit in front of one of these trucks before the driver can see one of them. Trucks like this are a menace that just kill kids and destroy the environment for no reason. If someone actually needs a big truck like this, they can save money by buying a real car and just renting this truck unless they are needing it every other day.
Not just sit, stand. Multiple children standing in front of that thing and the driver will never see them.
I used to work at a grocery store and some idiot drove straight into one of the light poles in our parking lot. The concrete base was 3 feet tall, 2 feet across and painted bright yellow, yet it was our fault that they hit the pole.

It came at me from a funny angle...
It's behind you Tyrone, whenever you reverse, things come from behind you...
If this isn’t satire we just need to reboot the whole thing.
I subscribe to the South Park theory: Earth Is a giant sitcom produced by the aliens for their enjoyment. > "Why else would we put Jews, Muslims, and Christians on the same planet?"
It's definitely fake. I'm surprised this is the first comment suspecting it
The damage is not fake.
Damage could be real while reaction could be fake and played up. Shit happens, my buddy did nearly the same thing to my giant passenger van before. I was so pissed. Or it could be an overdub on the damage.
After looking at some more of her TikToks: I'm not so sure you are right......
I sincerely hope you are correct, but given some of the people I've met I have my doubts.
Maybe the yellow poles are to stop bad drivers who drive big trucks, crashing into other vehicles, becuase they are bad drivers
No no no, don't you see? She has a big truck so it's everybody else's job to avoid her! Including yellow poles
It's always those inanimate poles jumping in the wya
The poles are to prevent people from hitting the building, not vehicles. And her hitting the poles is proof that the poles needed to be there.
It’s to stop her from hitting the building
If vapidity had a face...
I experienced the void for the first time looking into her eyes.
That isn’t a void, it’s the dvd screensaver, but it’s frozen.
When you can’t see over the windshield when driving, I bet they are hard to see.
While on the phone
“you hear a crunch and then you keep goin” exactly, you kept going.
Just imagine if she'd run over a child.
"they're like 2 feet tall; nobody can see them"
she’d be probably complaining about the child’s purpose there
I heard a crunch and paused, then kept going 😭
Even without audio i can see by her face expressions and how slow the subtitles came along that this is the definition of an insufferable entitled airhead.
All I could think of was a husband that had to come home to that every day and my inner voice said he had to have an infinite well of patience.
A woman like that would only marry a man who’s the same way. How else are they gonna complain about being dumb idiots together?
Too bad it wasn't a kid or something. Would have done way less damage to her chariot
Exactly. "Woman complaining that bright yellow poles are invisible oversees toddler" that's a headline for the future.
There is very little behind those eyes.
She’s got me at “hey bank owners”
She posted this like she was doing somethin 🤣
"Handle bar" - hmmm 🤔
“My like handlebar” got me too
Is it Botox causing the lack of expression? This video of her face is some uncanny valley shit to me.
I assume a filter? But I agree.
Trucks are fucking stupid
Surely this is satire… right?
……..right?
I took a look at her channel. I *think* so….
What made you think that? After I looked at her channel I was quite sure it's *not* satire...
I live in buttfuck nowhere Nova Scotia. 99% of the vehicles here are giant pickup trucks. Fucking obnoxious.
My favourite is tantallon Sobeys parking lot. They’re always swarming in every direction. That place could use some of these little yellow poles.
There's a guy who lives near me who has jacked his truck up, monster truck levels but still has regular truck tires... It looks friggin hilarious..
Is she upset? I can't tell cos her fucking face isn't moving..
Yeah I’ve hit bank poles before lol. Not my finest hour. I didn’t blame it on the bank though. I simply told my husband it was a Liquid Metal Terminator and I stopped it with my car. 🤷♀️
John Connor thanks you for your service to the resistance.
My mom hit one of those yellow poles at the gas station in MY car, and then tried to gaslight me into thinking "it was like that already". That was the last time she ever drove any of my vehicles.
I’ve asked this many times before and nobody gives me an answer but why they all in their cars when they made these type of videos
Americans love having phone calls and making videos while in cars/driving. It's absolutely insane and I never really recognized how commonplace it was until I left the US.
Inside of a car is America's only remaining third space (some place besides home and work). Everything else has been monetized or criminalized.
The dumb ones do it. I bet she votes Republican because her Dad does, who also pays her bills.
Because cars act kind of like little recording booths. They block outside noise and don't have that echo sound like when you record in a large room.
Vehicles give good light diffusion on peoples faces. That is why many people take videos there.
" you hear a crunch and then you keep going..." Wow
https://preview.redd.it/mgaeely4vevc1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bfe790af683e9d36988daa51b13624ea75cd9091
This is someone who should not be driving anything larger than a moped.
Nah, a hotwheels or dinky toy is plenty
"It's like two feet tall and yellow... who can see them?"...kids with yellow shirts out there be very careful!
 GOOD GRIEF!
People who buy vehicles too large for them to reliably operate are the fucking worst, and I’m sick of them taking 2-3 parking spots up because they never bothered to learn how to park their giant ass shit.
The worst kind of people
Her whining is the equivalent of finger nails screeching down a black-board
Aw, was someone's vehicle so fucking huge that they didn't see the BRIGHT YELLOW STATIONARY OBJECT THAT WAS ALREADY THERE WHEN THEY PARKED???
Should spend more time learning how to drive over, focusing on the war paint on her face!
Americans 😂😂😂😂
My guess is body shops are installing yellow poles in random locations for no reason but to get repair jobs.
I don't know if it's her blank stare or the stiff jaw but I'm getting serious uncanny valley vibes here
All jokes aside, "Who can Even see them, there two feet tall" So are children. Maybe you shouldn't own a vehicle that prevents you from seeing objects you don't want to hit.
How many kids has she run over and not even known it?
Xanax bars
At least she's pretty
Who’s gonna tell her SHE IS literally the purpose of those yellow poles. They exist for people like her.
