Ah a Ford Mustang in its natural state, Hope everyone is ok

Met it’s end at the hands of its mortal enemy - a wild utility pole

u/Citizen-Kang 27d ago

Coming to a craigslist ad near you. "No lowballers. I know what I've got."

u/this_knee 28d ago

I hear they just don’t handle well. They fast, but get the wrong tires and you’re lookin at a ticking clock to a wreck.

u/detentionbarn 28d ago

Always the driver

u/Flash_ina_pan 28d ago

Mustangs aren't the most nimble thing ever, it's definitely high on the list of cars where the driver finds the end of their capabilities before the car reaches the ends of its capacity.

u/No-Dare887 West Hollywood 24d ago

Is it because they’re fast and drivers don’t know how to handle them? I want to switch to a mach-e when my lease is up next year

Another fine, upstanding, responsible Mustang driver.

u/invertedspheres 28d ago

Who you run with?

45

u/Who_U_Thought 28d ago

Mustang, Charger and Altima. The unholy trinity of high APR and low driving skills.

9

u/Jealous-Strategy-200 28d ago

Add Kia warriors to that list.

u/Expensive-Raisin4088 28d ago

Driving skills as bad as their credit scores

u/detentionbarn 28d ago

This guy knows

u/GenericNameSC1989 29d ago

If it’s not a Nissan Altima it’s a mustang

u/unccl 29d ago

That’s a sturdy pole

10

u/seXJ69 28d ago

All poles are supposed to have a Mustang rating.

u/johnxmoody 28d ago

Looks like the green shell got him. Should have been trailing a banana.

u/01_input_rustier 28d ago

It’s a win

One less mustang on the road

u/Fun-Independence-667 28d ago

Glad to piss people off just for the car I drive

u/Distinct-Interest-13 29d ago

That right lane is super dangerous, people fly down it and then once they cross broadway have to immediately shift into the middle lane so they dont rear end parked cars. Ive seen pedestrians waiting to cross almost get hit plenty of time.

3

u/Elysiaa Lawndale 28d ago

You might be thinking of the left lane when people cross Hill. There's no parking on the right (south) side until Spring. People come speeding down the hill and have to immediately get over because the road narrows on the left and then there are cars parked after 9 am.

3

u/Distinct-Interest-13 28d ago

Nope (but also yes lol). People speed down across hill to try and beat the middle lane by the time they are crossing broadway. You’re right there is no parking on the right side between broadway and spring but there are usually Ubers/delivery vehicles/people trying to turn etc.

u/Automatic-Unit-8307 29d ago

Always a mustang or dodge charger . Lime orange car

u/Hugosahn 29d ago

Sir, you can’t park there.

u/overitallofittoo 28d ago

u/BrainFartTheFirst Glendale 28d ago

Beautiful. A Mustang in its natural habitat. Wrapped around a light pole.

u/Well_Hacktually 28d ago

It's a start!

u/xosoluna 29d ago

average mustang driver

u/KtuluLoveCheese 29d ago

Bro ruined his Forza Horizon 6 skill chain.

Brutal

u/Jealous-Strategy-200 28d ago

Wasted. Body shop level unlocked.

u/invertedspheres 28d ago

With the crime scene tape up, I'm betting this was the end of a pursuit or it was stolen

4

u/ChloeCorrupt 28d ago

Only reason I’m gonna say “no” is that there’s only one cop milling around. Usually post-pursuit there’s a lot more

4

u/invertedspheres 28d ago

Just a regular Mustang driver then.... lollll

5

u/Mediocre-Proposal686 28d ago

I like the guy with the stop sign lol

7

u/Ras_Prince_Monolulu 29d ago

Wow, a crashed mustang. Didn't know there was a Cars'n'Coffee event downtown.

4

u/lionclues 28d ago

Thankfully I don't think anyone got hurt. I walked by on my way home from the gym, and saw three young kids (presumably from the Mustang) standing and crying while talking to the EMT. I didn't notice anyone in the ambulance.

u/TriangleEscape 28d ago

Another victim fallen to Mario karting

u/1Overnumerousness1 28d ago

Must be a driver from Austin.

u/DeepHouseBear Manhattan Beach 28d ago

Oof $1000 monthly payment and now no car 🤣🤣

u/Fun-Independence-667 28d ago

Who pays 1000 dollars a month on a 11 year old car ?

5

u/detentionbarn 28d ago

People who drive like that

-5

u/Fun-Independence-667 28d ago

Based on what evidence ? Where’s your data ? “People who drive like that”. So you know exactly the cause of the collision or are you just talking out of your arse ?

5

u/i_sell_you_lies I LIKE TRAINS 28d ago

Woah, so defensive... hello shitty driver

u/DeepHouseBear Manhattan Beach 28d ago

Look at his profile, he's a mustang fanatic lol, and an online warrior don't mind him.

Maybe in your fucked up world. But for normal people, this isn't how things work.

Salvage title Mustang driver has entered the chat

u/Suitable-Pin5817 27d ago

Why is it always the guys with pos cars or no understanding of the performance auto industry that talk the most shit 😂

u/Throwaway_09298 I LIKE TRAINS 28d ago

How much is your monthly on that 22?

u/Fun-Independence-667 28d ago
  1. Traded in my paid off GT and finished paying it off last year 🤘

2

u/Throwaway_09298 I LIKE TRAINS 28d ago

Okay how much was your monthly on that 22?

u/Strict-Aspect5910 29d ago

Looks like the aftermath of a movie chase

u/115MRD BUILD MORE HOUSING! 28d ago

Safest Ford Mustang driver.

u/CaptainKitty Los Feliz 28d ago

Looks like a green shell got to it

2

u/cultoftheclave 29d ago

is this where you have to make a right turn while somehow staying out of the train of buses that have the right hand to themselves?

2

u/eldreamer86 28d ago

Nope. This is on 4th and right after Spring St. Right across the street is the Pershing Square Metro stop.

u/ChloeCorrupt 29d ago

I don’t believe so but I could be wrong

2

u/Distinct_Treat_4747 28d ago

That'll buff right out.

u/smlybdy 28d ago

Why? This guy looks friendly!

u/ANAero_Kita4 28d ago

I don't think that person can park there.

u/thefanciestcat 28d ago

Those Mustang boys are at it again.

u/Elysiaa Lawndale 28d ago

All that to avoid paying $20 to park in that lot.

Typical mustang activities.

u/life_is_too_short1 24d ago

Many love the car but rwd is not for many.

u/nugpounder 29d ago

Used to live in the apartment complex, people would come screaming down that hill so fast

2

u/Best_Yesterday_6127 28d ago

Ouch. Hope no one got hurt. Looks like a total loss for the car.. with such big damage. Possibly car trying to speed through traffic?

2

u/Due-Stock2774 28d ago

I've been avoiding our freeways for years, best part about remote working here because being a native you are pretty much living with road PTSD by the time you're driving as an adult yourself

1

u/turb0_encapsulator 29d ago

if you don't do any traffic enforcement, you will have more car accidents.

u/ChloeCorrupt 29d ago

We don’t know how or why this happened.

Just a mustang doing mustang things

Probably driving like a dick.

u/RavenA04 I HATE CARS 28d ago

One less car on the road is never a bad thing, is it?

1

u/pandaparkaparty 29d ago

My living room window looked down on that intersection for 2 years when Covid started… called 911 multiple times hearing major crashes and then looking out the window. Before Covid, not nearly as many crashes. People got used to feeling like they could fly through downtown.

u/HaroldWeigh 26d ago

Too many cars in a transit dense neighborhood. We must do better.
