good to know... still, feel sorry for the BMW driver and passenger, what a scary experience... My nephew is an EMT in NYC, I wonder if he had heard anything about this case...

As sick as this sounds I really wanted to watch the video with the girls head rolling but couldn't find it.

Sometimes I like to watch Darwin in action, at that rate of speed (I watched the news video) she had no regard for other lives or her own and to be honest I don't feel sorry for them. Lucky it was just a side impact but a head on collision we would all be singing a different tune as far as feeling sorry for the victims.

It's like the bikers who give ones like me a bad name who stunt and weave and fuck around at 120 on local roads, when their heads roll no one feels bad bc they were asking for trouble and trying to cheat death.


Just my .02

@RB I think it was a 20 year old guy driving which died in the hospital and girl was the passenger which is the side that went kaboom into the pole.

Its sad, then again that car was doing 80 minimum in the video. At 80 in brooklyn i would expect to die from a pothole let alone how people drive in nyc.

Dayamn. No it wasn't me. Because it it was, and I had my girls in the car, both people in the maxima would be dead at the scene.

Not for nothing that area is ghetto. And I own property there, damn, I know, but it was cheap, and makes money. I always said the cops really don't police the ghetto enough, they seem to let it sort itself out. In Sheepshead, you will get pulled over for blowing through a yellow. I guess the cops go where they can make more money. Then shit like this happens.No one is going to give a shit. Just like the weekly shootings in Flatbush. If it isn't some retard on a bike doing 100mph between cars, it is another idiot thinking he is at the drag strip, and another thinks he a gangsta.

Flatbush ave is wide. 3 dedicated lanes, and a parking lane. The parking lane is usually clear, except for business traffic. Now, I have sped up a bit on it myself, but never over 50, if that high, and when I do it, no one is around. AND, that is until you get to ave U, where the accident happened. That intersection if beyond nuts. It is literally 4 lanes each direction, crossing 3 lanes in each direction. Lots of arrows, and a decent traffic system pattern. If you are not an idiot, it will never phase you. The dude in the maxima should have just jumped off a building, he took a life by speeding that hard core. Lucky he didn't kill anyone on the street. Kings Plaza usually packed.

And the video here.
http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/...icle-1.1798579

Damn idiot. Kings plaza is where the BMW came from. Damn that was quick.

Is it safe to say, that if it was your car, heads would have rolled? in that Maxima?


I couldn't resist.

Black wheels on the Nissan. This vid adds to my theory that many owners who do this mod think they're pro drivers and indestructable. Even seen a few black wheel ricers doing around 100mph down the shoulder of Hwy 35 and Loop 12 when traffic is stop/go under 30mph.

A co-worker lost his daughter in FL while a passenger in a Honda Civic with black wheels. Boyfriend driver was doing around 90 passing stopped traffic in Orlando (on rt shoulder), overheating bus tried to pull onto shoulder, impact/several rolls killed all four late teen/early 20s in Civic.
