Video of M3 crash
 
M3 crash and rollover on the median. No one was hurt.

Pretty nasty crash. Glad there were no injuries. On a side note, what are so many people just randomly filming themselves driving for?

Even M3s are not immune to hydroplaning...

Agree with Seth:
"Hey honey, it's pouring out, but I'm gonna go for a spin and shoot vids out the windshield with the wipers slapping back and forth...you know, out on that boring azz road with the construction barriers. Never know what I might record. Back in an hourish..."

I have heard that in Europe (and some other countries) its pretty common practice for people to have video rolling at all times when they are driving. It just keep recording last x minutes/hours of video based on storage capacity.

Its like that video of X6 crash I had posted a while back.

I guess they want to capture some accidents;) or in case they are in one, they have some evidence. :dunno:

why did the M3 pass on the right?
And why was the driver in the video car staying in the left lane?

Left lane drivers ANYWHERE piss me off.

Professional drivers (trucks, cars) will often run video for insurance purposes.

^^ Except in UK, ANZ, Japan, etc.... ;)

I drive about 50K miles in a typical year. I keep a video for insurance (deer, dog, owl) proof of damage animal fault.

But more importantly because I drive in seizure zones where cops pull people over for false reasons in order to get a chance to "inspect" your car for any goodies they can steal.

I am guessing the video is taken somewhere in Asia based on the markings on the shoulder when the video car pulls over and the signs.:dunno:

Wow. That is some serious hydroplaning. Too much speed? Bad tires? :dunno:

The median held up nicely and prevented the M3 from launching over to the other side. I have my doubts if American medians would be so effective.

You are respectfully "unfortunately" right my friend. Bad corrupted Cops do that :confused: sometimes
