  • RWD fail.

  • The correct term for this is "power-on oversteer". Basically he hit the gas too hard, the rear end broke loose, and he lost control. This can happen at 20MPH. As other posters have mentioned, speed has nothing to do with this.

  • why not learning how to drive can cost you your car

  • Im going to speed just because you dont want me to.

  • just another corvette driver.

  • he crashed because he was a moron and veered into the opposite lane not because he was speeding. hes just an idiot. ive driven on roads like this before, staying in your lane is really important when the road curves.

  • Didn't look like they were going all that fast. It had more to do with oversteer in a high powered rear drive car. Most people never drive a car like this and don't realize it's nearly impossible to do in a front drive car at these low speeds. You could go the same speed or faster in you front drive family car and not crash. It's all about vehicle dynamics and driver experience.

  • insurance companies world wide are licking there lips with excitment...next time yr premium goes up u can blame idiots like the one in this video.For sure this guy claimed insurance bullshitted and we all pay higher because of fools like this.Not to mention the risk to other road users the condition of road and blind corners the driver of this vehicle should never be aloud to operate a car ever again

  • lol

  • One less covette on the road, and a idiot bout to buy one

  • this was a police chase...i saw it on spike tv...

  • Speeding doesn't kill; suddenly becoming stationary is what gets you!

  • All about skill and nothing to do with Speeding. Tell me where this was filmed and me and the Camaro will show what Speeding really is.

  • yeah this crash can't be attributed to speed

  • it's funny because his car's fucked up and mine isn't.

  • thats just not knowing how to drive

  • It looks like Steel Road so named for all the cars written off on it.

  • Why speeding could potentially cost you thousands of dollars (or your car!) or your life!

  • @rsoneill21 So true...

  • @rsoneill21 i think it was a test drive before he bought it also lol. gotta be careful

  • thats not speeding.. thats just being stupid..

  • The only thing this video makes me wanna do is find that stretch off road & run amuck.

  • speeding? more like a failed drift attempt...

  • Yeah, that wasn't that excessive, he was just a bad driver. I don't think this video would cause any "speeders" to stop "speeding" you have to use scarier stuff girlfriend (im guessing you are a lonley woman with 8 cats).

  • There is a better video of this on Youtube that wasn't recorded on Grandma's blackberry.....

  • 55 MPH. Slow enough to make you think your safe. Fast enough to kill you.

  • lol bad driver really bad drive wasnt the speed was him not paying attention

  • what the fucks up with the beginning of a porn movie music lol

  • High performance car with a low performance driver.

    That wasn't speed, that was stupid.

  • dumb ass corvette drivers, they aren't meant for corners, no matter what people say.

  • It's all apart of the fun. If you can't handle it then you shouldn't be driving.

  • Change the title to "Why being a shitty driver, and owning a RWD car can cost you thousands."

  • As said above; nothing to do with speed; a 2010 corolla can do higher speeds than that through a mountain pass (which it has) than the driver must have been of the handicapped... or retard.

    Vette>rolla, but a blind guy>that driver...

  • Now I WANT to speed!!!

    Mostly because this video is a repost of someone who took the corvette on a test drive and tried showing off. Wait a min, can I still claim the dramatic chipmunk as MY video..... I wonder if that will work

  • More like special thanks to Dustin Worles of Mischief.tv for the footage, as it's his. Original video featured talking about what was going on, not just music. Oh, The original version is also much longer and would probably provide you with more examples on why people shouldn't drive like idiots. Then again, that road is one of my favorites, but as fast as I drive, I don't mess with that final turn, it's even worse coming from the other direction.

  • so whoever lsted this must be gay or a complete faggot go drive your geo metro into a wall loser

  • or youyr life or somone elses life

  • a sports car licence. You need a special license to drive a truck cause it has 6 wheels but a a 600hp speed demon can fall in the same class as a civic

  • Stupid vid. There is nothing wrong with exceeding the posted limit if the limit is too low for conditions. Well, except that the misinformed police and nanny state will get you for it. Driving too fast for conditions is whats wrong. The idiot in the sports car clearly was driving too fast for the conditions.

  • haha fail

  • touge fail

  • did he died?

  • i saw this on tv, the kid borrowed his dads car or something like that, it wasent his

  • You should re-title this to "dont drive a chevy"

  • poor car.

  • This vid is more of a warning to be ready for the vette to swing when you punch it around a corner.

  • corvette fail

  • people should learn to drive in old Cadillacs. you can't do anything quickly because the car just won't respond. you have to plan ahead and know your own and your vehicle's limitations in order to be safe. then move on to another, more responsive vehicle...

  • @tucsondog for sure I learned in a Lincoln

  • I agree with you though people need to stop because very few people can actually drive properly. im not saying im a driving god but there are some people who have no feel for whatever car they have and i can't be in the car when they are driving, some people just shouldn't be allowed to drive or buy certain cars.

  • the title should actually be don't drive fast unless u know what your doing because there are people in my area who drive "fast" and ive seen the same cars for years. t of the time when people say im driving fast im just maintaining my speed around every corner. its the idiots who have never had more than 150 horse power suddenly decide they can drive a 350 or more hp car like there parents sedan or that little sporty whatever they had in high school.

  • @Javierm0n0 yaw man. I hear ya. Hell, I have an 05 RSX type s with 9 PSI running through it and I usually don't speed on roads. Thats shits for the track, cuz you never know when some dumbass on the road is going to be busy doing their make up or jackin off. The only time I will take corners quick or speed on a road is if I know the road. I seen too many stupid kids wrap their cars up. Bottom line is, people just have to know their limits.

  • corvettes are junk made by a bankrupt company Government Motors that took billions from taxpayers because THEY FAILED at being a car company.

  • general motors dumbass

  • @exBMRgal

    & BMWs are for ladies. Oh yeah and gay yuppies too.

  • what car do you own then?

  • @LarchaicL1

    Now Lotus Elise. B4 Carrera 4 cabriolet, 6 B4 were Vette convertibles. Guess you drive a Beemer?

  • yeah so why you be callin beemer owners gay, it makes no sense. You're just mad that most americans would rather drive a jap, huh. Its fine i understand ur mad but why take it on other people.

    So you owned vette conv.

    carrera,

    elise,

    cabriolet

  • true it was a total waste of money to ball out a bank rupt companey that no body wanted to buy there cars thay did it to thim selfs i mean who wants to buy a car named a volt or avero or a hummer all wich suck and brake down all the time aney way buy a FORD thay rock

  • @exBMRguy Dude, Really... Go and criticize the idiotic driver all you want. If your "butt-sore" about GMs recent bail out (which they've already paid back by the way) then go write them an angry letter or something. In the meantime go put some Ice on your butt to relieve the swelling and keep your trifling 2 cents to yourself.

  • The guy driving the Vette was on a test drive and playing around drifting and doing burn outs. It was not the speed, but his lack of time in this car. TOO MUCH POWER FOR HIM. The full video can be seen here also.

  • @KALUPO78 understeer

  • aw man, the car was nice as well. couldnt make it out though.

  • what are you guys talkin about I dont understand,,,,every carr can take the corners american european... but do not drive it like hi drive becouse every time you will crash,,,you know if you ask someone are you scared from wolf hi will say yes!!!! if you ask him if hi is scared from the carr hi say NOOO!!! are you crazy but no one die becouse of wolf think a bitt how many peoples die becouse cars accident...my opinion;) have funn and drive carefully...

  • daddys gonna be mad!

  • i like it with chris

  • covettes like that are a dime a dozen in Calgary

  • RACING FTW

  • He wasn't speeding. His right rear went onto the gravel and he just over corrected and tagged a tree.

  • wow... the DMV just gives licenses out to any and everyone nowadays... this doesnt surprise me at all and has NOTHING to do with speed.... speed does NOT kill... but DUMBASSES speeding DO

  • @SixFiveOhARR Well DMV improved from the past, DMV would give a driver license to a 10 year old boy if he asked for one 20 or 30 years ago.

  • Citing this video as evidence for American cars' poor handling is like watching the Eddie Griffin Ferrari Enzo video and saying "O EM GEE HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY FERRARI ENZOS CAN'T GO AROUND CORNERS AHAHA"

    This video proves nothing, idiot.

  • thats why the corvette zr-1, an american car, holds the world record at the nurburgring track.

    What was that now? american cars cant go around corners?

  • corvette and the cts-v are the only two that can lol

  • that had nothing to do with speeding you dumb fuck, that was a shit driver. it is becuase of idiots like you that speed limits are set so ridiculously low

  • Best comment ever!

  • yeah...good comment

  • It was only a vette. Who cares?

  • @jurbina15

    i would of rathered it be a honda

  • i didnt catch the speeding the poster of this video is a pussy

  • Meow!

  • Oh nwm its vete

  • ever since i saw a child get hit at 50mph on a 30mph road who was coming home from school...i will never speed again unless im on a track!

  • Well, if you hit the kid at 30, you'll wreck his day also. Watch the road 1st, speedometer 2nd. And just because the speed limit is 30 mph, that doesn't mean that is always a safe speed either, just FYI.

  • wow ur speeding along with him and u say he is the dumb one

  • I wasn't the one who filmed it - I wasn't in the car. I found it on the web.

  • @sills66 the corvette was from a dealer and they were taking it for a test drive and the vette was trying to drift

  • @thiefrules That's about half right, the tv show made up the part about it being a test drive. In reality, the driver of the vette was just some guy that wanted to show off to Mischief.tv, and borrowed the car from his work (the dealership). It wasn't new either, was a used z06.

  • Good driver. Fail.

  • This guy cant drive. Spinning the rear wheels is what makes cars fun.

  • what kind of car was that

  • corvette.. he was test driving it lol

  • That looked like over steer..

  • whats the song in this vide? sumone. its so awesome.

  • juste un mot.... AH! AH! AH!

  • What an IDIOT...

    What was he doing on the left side of the road?

    Scumbag.

  • hahah yeah what a shit video, great lesson moron

  • How do you crash when you're going that slow? I can understand getting a 'vette a little sideways, I've done that accidentally myself...just don't understand why you'd take out your frustration by ramming a tree...Poor tree.

  • When you have a very fast car, you can spin the tires and then the car very easily. The Viper was well-known for people crashing it right after they buy it as they are leaving the dealership . In a very fast RWD car, punch the accelerator and if the front wheels aren't perfectly straight (if you are in any kind of turn) you will spin out. I had a car that I could spin the back wheels by punching it hard at 100 mph, even with new tires (the biggest tires you could get without getting slicks).

  • das passiert wenn die amis ps fahren die zu viel sind. meine meinung lernt mal fahren und dann kauft euch so ein auto und nicht umgekehrt.

  • he wasn't even going that fast

  • i really love this video. It shows that guys driving sports cars arent as bad ass as they think they are.

  • exactly, learn tofuckin drive it

  • This is funny because A: no one got hurt and B: this guy is a TERRIBLE driver. Very tight road, yes. But Christ, no other cars coming and relatively low speeds. Buddy, you should really pick another hobby before you kill someone.

  • had it comming

  • You aren't going to change the fact that some people are passionate about driving,you cant confine that to a track. Safety and good judgment must be exercised while doing anything,fast driving doesn't always mean unsafe driving. Senior citizens drive slow and they are some of the most unsafe drivers on the road.

  • I agree, senior citizens shit me to tears, They complain about modified cars being dangerous I dont see whats so bad about new lower centre of gravity suspension and a brake upgrade, with mags and new tyres, but old farts in old carts hook up caravans which reduces handling, braking and rear view sight,put their spectacles on and hit the road.

  • Then why are the majority of accients involving teens and young people?

    You are a moron if you advocate performance driving on public roads. This guy was the epitome of negligent and just plain stupid.

    Will people drive fast? Yes, are they unsafe? YES. The posted speeds are there for a reason, and most morons that would argue in your favor dont recognize them all. Wake up, grow up, and slow down.

  • Young people and teens have the majority because our driver training is EXTREMELY lax in the US. And what gives you the right to call me a moron,you don't know me or how I conduct myself. Low speed limits cater to those who feel it necessary to talk on the phone,READ,text,check makeup etc. The united states's speed limits were set during the fuel crisis of the 1970's,how logical are outdated driving laws?

  • Point #1: yes, driver training should more closely follow what it takes to be a pilot. You are the type of person who figures if you cant stop someone, then why try to, that makes you a moron. Want to drive fast? Take it to the track. The simple fact is that slowing down increases safety. Higher limits could be had safely but we would need better roads/cars/drivers. Instead we have morons in shitbox cars going too fast. I slow down knowing I can better avoid an accident, as well as survive.

  • oh, and speed limits HAVE changed since the 70s, they were stuck at 55 for years as a nationwide maximum, that has been eliminated and now states control the speed limit. Many states have 75mph limits these days. Do your research.

  • thats right, here in europe i had to answer 50 theoritical questions and 40 needed to be right answered. i had 43/50. now the practical i heard its awfully hard here to. you also MUST learn with a manual gearbox here. i heared most people in the United States are using automatics.

  • gij moet uwe theorie er terug bijhale maat :D

    ge moet ni manueel lere rije, als ge automaat leert rije, moet ge ook me automaat blijve rije...

    geen schrik vo u praktijk komt wel in orde :D heb het eergistere nog gedaan, gewoon rustig blijve en zeker u borden in het oog houden, ik had bord van zone 30 gemist en ree er 50... nog een tip is defensief rijden

  • verdorie als het waar is wat je zegt had ik beter eerst wat research gedaan... anyway ik gaan leren voor met manuele ik kan het nu al redelijk goed.

  • so did u get to your destination any faster??

  • he was looking for a christmas tree but didn't have an axe, so he used his car to cut it down

  • ...or your life

  • yea he lost control or the car he was going to fast around that turn his own falt

  • haha if u don't know how to race on tiny roads don't even try

  • bad vid

  • i would speed anywere i like fast cars anything to do somthing stupid in

    jokes!

  • on that kind of road, i wouldn't even go the suggested speed limit

  • everything in moderation, and theres a time and a place for everything

    two little quotes that I think apply

  • i still like speeding.....but i wouldent speed in a tight road like this were an on coming car can be right around the conrer.....being stupid on this kinda road.....is stupid....lol.....give me open freeways anyday....

  • haha

    ill keep speeding. thanks

  • FAIL.

  • coulda been worse :)

  • dum ass.(the driver)

  • lol, he oversteered his tail onto some mud.

  • Haha rodneyrick you fuckwit, sounds like a mid life crisis you going through

  • lololol

  • Stupid Corvette... Roads like this are made for All Wheel Drive vehicles, or a car with decent 4 Wheel Management Computerization... Not for a Stupid Slap a V8 in a cheap fiberglass car, and sell it to the market for stupid like this can crash it... Oh and Corvette's like the Z06, and ZR1 wouldnt do any better on a road like this, Why? because it has way to much power for anyone, to say that they can control it, unless your a race car driver. So buy a Skyline...

  • STFU,you import nuthugger! go drive your riced out civic!

  • well wut are u gonna buy? like a 150k porsche or something. or a corvette that will kick its ass when its half price

  • i think it's all about the driver. give an idiot a Subaru and he'll manage to even screw that up somehow.

  • as much as i like imports, know your facts, the ZR1 beat the new GT-R in every single way possible, its faster around a track, and in a straight line, and brakes faster

  • how is that even relevant to the video. please staple your hands together.

  • My car is old, RWD, has a solid rear axle, and is perfect for those roads. >_>

  • Speed doesnt kill, bad driving and oblivious other drivers do. Especially those on the phone while driving. Of course speeding isnt the best thing to do, but its speeding in places where its bad to do so that causes accidents.

    Look at the autobahn, it actually has a lesser death and accident rate per mile compared to our interstate system. Its rules, regulations, and skilled drivers that save lives.

    The best driver is a properly experienced driver!

  • You title the video "Speeding Kills" but the driver of the corvette would not suffer fatal injuries. You should've put a video where somebody actually died. Retitle this video "Speeding will potentially fuck up your car"

  • Alright, kipka2, good suggestion, I'll do that. I've had too many comments on why it doesn't kill...

  • Maybe a vid that shows statistics on how incredibly long it takes for you to slow to a stop from a high speed or something

  • lol that wasn't speeding looked like he was goin around 80 km/h (around 60 mph (i think)

  • no its a c-5 vet and speeding doesnt kill bad driving does

  • Hey,speeding kills,anyone around your car,every factors can make you crash at high speed more than if you you go at the right speed limit also if youre a very good driver!!

  • No if you are speeding that means you are a bad driver!

  • you're retarded, speeding does not make anyone a bad driver...not having the ability to drive makes you a bad driver

    speeding kills if your a bad driver.

    I've seen worse drivers that go under the speed limit than over.

  • "not having the ability to drive makes you a bad driver"

    Yes, I totally agree with that too.

    "speeding kills if your a bad driver"

    That is also true, but speeding allso kills if you are a good driver. Even experienced drivers who speed sometimes lose control and die.

    But in summary, bad drivers do not follow road rules and one of them is keeping to a speed limit.

  • actually no it's all about knowing how to handle ur vehicle and easing into the faster speeds there's some dumbass ppl out there that they play NFS and just go buy a mustang GT and they start hauling ass in it the first day and they don't know anything about the car..good drivers need to know how to handle there car, know how to make the little turns in the road when speeding and can't over turn or you'll lose it....it's all about control and experience.

  • Yeah got to agree with ms13goku. Plus the dip shits that watch a fast and the furious movie then think they got some racing skills if your in a tuner and i can out handle you in a 71 chevy pickup you should probably not be speeding. Learn what your car can and can not do.

  • ?  are you saying you can outhandle me ? lol i'm confused i have a 81 Chevy C-10 lol

  • Exactamundo. Too often the driver doesn't match the car and more often, car doesn't match what the driver expects of it.

    Then they stick it on here just to make sure the entire world sees what a wanker they turned out to be.. (lol)

  • is that a lamborghini?

  • is that coldplay? what song is that?

  • Coldplay - beautiful world

  • wrong, coldplay - dont panic.

  • THAT IS IN STANLEY PARK RIGHT

  • poor tree :(

  • These people are actually good drivers-I have the DVD. Maybe not him, though :D

  • fitting song

  • Umm this guy survived without injuries, the car wasn't even his, it was owned by the dealership he worked at.

  • Take it to a track. Don't drive like an idiot on the street. You can't predict what someone else is going to do or where they will show up. Risk your own life when it's just your own life you're risking.

  • preach the good word bro

  • thats what insurance is for.

  • ur an idiot.sum1 shuld no there limits.i race all the time(on the track)and ive become an instructor.never had 1 crash.had 39 driving educations 1=1 hour 5 minutes of racing and never crashed.jst cuz u cant handle a car isnt our fault and dont act like u dont speed evry1 duz.if we went 10 in a skool zone that wuld b the stupidest thing and u wuld jst piss plp off.this vid has nuthing 2 do with speeding this guy is jst an idiot and duznt need that car.u probably drive a 92 horsepower honda

  • hahaha get to know road before you drive like an idiot on it! such a nice car too, imagine what it could do in the hands of someone who actually knows what they are doing lol 5 stars!

  • Carry a hazard-warning triangle in your car, van & 4WD at *all* times, hazard warning lights don't work around blind corners/curves or over crests.

    The EU/UN Spec warning triangle (UNECE 27Regulation in Transport) is a much better product in performance than the North American/Australian market specification rubbish,- for such purposes.

    No comment on the 'driving' - folk here have that commented, 'well enough':-)

  • that's what happens when you see to much of the fake and the furious

  • Idiot driver. Thats all. Vehicle was capable. Driver wasn't.

    He needs to know his limits.

    Made a fool of himself trying to show off.

    Worse, he also endangered others.

  • speeding is dangerous and can kill you, I agree. But this crash had nothing to do with speeding, it was a very dumb distracted driver who overturned, got surprised by the curve and couldnt handle the right foot on the gas, high powered cars do not handle themselves as gently as your granny´s honda. asshole

  • heres what i have say about this driver: any driver who drives their car enough would never do that...he was obviously a weekend driver being a dumbass and pushing his car without knowing its limits

  • Damn, that was a close call. I hope the other guy is okay and hope he gives us a good example of reckless driving. Had you been a cop behind him, you'd pull him over for excessive speed.

  • That will buff right out.

  • we all no that the yanks can't make cars that can corner. do it in a lotus or a layland daf bus it would of done better than that.

  • haha what a dumbass stupid teens
