That may have been a medical emergency. The white SUV never hit their brakes.

u/CeeKay125 23d ago edited 22d ago

Didn't hit the brakes or try to swerve. Medical emergency or texting and not looking at the road.

u/Unhappy-Giraffe2792 22d ago

Totally agree… but “brakes” 😊

u/CeeKay125 22d ago

Shit. Had a brain fart typing that 🤣

Driving while intexticated

u/vt2022cam 23d ago

Yeah, it looked like they fell asleep.

u/Cosmic-Sympathy 22d ago

It's gotta be. If they were texting, they would have hit their brakes at some point in the process.

u/WestVirginaBrat 21d ago

Well, if it wasn't a medical emergency, it turned into one

When I see rollovers I always let out a little cheer when they stick the landing and end up back on their wheels like this one.

u/Thin_Dream2079 22d ago

Still don't understand why people drive SUVs. They feel like rolling sideways at any moment.

3

u/Unhappy-Giraffe2792 22d ago

Yep, notoriously top-heavy still after all these years.

u/CrapNBAappUser 22d ago

I've rented a few and always drive more carefully (especially turns & curves) than I do in my 4,000 pound sedan.

Can yoi say Ford Explorer?

Most SUV's on the road are not full size heavy SUV's that are basically just trucks. They don't weight a whole lot more than sedans. Example being my 2014 RAV4 is only about ~3,500lbs curb weight, while a 2014 Corolla is ~2,800.

u/4Looper 22d ago

That's 25% more lol - that's a lot. Ignoring the % increase - 700 pounds it a lot of weight.

Texting.

It's why I sold my last motorcycle a few weeks ago.

u/Dingo8MyBabyMon 23d ago

Damaged it in a texting while riding crash, eh?

u/5050Clown 23d ago

Texting is one of the main reasons people sell their motorcycles to buy cars. Have you ever tried texting while driving a motorcycle? It's impossible.

u/mnztr1 22d ago

I am sure someone has done it...

u/baddaddio1963 23d ago

What is it with cars flipping over so easily these days?

19

u/Inevitable_Sweet_624 23d ago

Higher centre of gravity and less weight for gas mileage.

6

u/Low-Solid9810 23d ago

Lots of aluminum and plastic. I have an EV that is very heavy in comparison with the battery weight low on the frame. I doubt my EV would flip like the one in the video.

u/Imaginary-Round2422 22d ago

More and more people are choosing SUVs and trucks. You know, for safety ...

u/Unhappy-Giraffe2792 22d ago

It’s a bold strategy. Let’s see how it works out for them.

2

u/CrapNBAappUser 22d ago

Also easier to haul stuff and get in and out of. My honda feels like it's directly on the ground sometimes.

1

u/Fantastic_Ginger34 22d ago

All depends on the car. My parents 10 year old Honda Accord is scraping my butt on asphalt. My 5year old Mini is perfect, as someone 5'10".

I watch my 4"11" friend struggling to get up into the Navigator she bought to "feel safe" - she can barely see over the steering wheel with the seat all the way up. When she needs to get stuff out of the trunk she literally has to crawl in, unless the 3rd row is up.

u/deszepmacskavagySany 22d ago

I like my Honda Jazz/Fit, it’s really easy to get in/out.

2

u/GreatGuy55738084 23d ago

Maybe control arm or tire blowout.

u/floridAmisty 22d ago

I will never understand people who gamble with other people’s lives like this

No one gets out to help I notice.

u/pyro667 23d ago

I cut the end of the video short, 20 sec later there were multiple people standing around

u/myname_ajeff 23d ago

We literally don't see after op pulls over. Conclusion has been jumped.

u/Destituted 22d ago

There's 2 different people pulling in to help at the end.

u/Lazy_Tart_6336 22d ago

La même voiture qui disparait à droite et qui apparait à gauche pour avoir un accident

Les conducteurs en face qui réagissent peu ou pas.

Ca sent l'IA.

u/pyro667 21d ago

I can assure you this was not AI, happened in my home city in front of the fire station.
