Failure to stick the landing will cause a points deduction.



Shitty ass camera work.

That vid made me giggle all night. So much for watching out for changing road and weather conditions while driving. HAHHAHAHAHA

I've never had the urge to start turning the wheel after flying through the air like that. Is it really so hard to keep control when flying in a straight line?

Maybe the suspension/steering broke?

From the YT comments
Michael Bay himself could not recreate that incident, and you messed it up with your ADHD camera skills...

That was an obvious double case of Attention Deficit Disorder. both the driver and the dumbass drama queen with the camera.

I actually wouldn't doubt vehicle failure on the return from orbit. It's the fact the driver was situationally unaware to the max beforehand that is stupid.

I guess they will take the "Bump Ahead" signs more seriously.
Did the Highway Dept. have more warning signs before the bump or called it good at the bump?

My favorite part was when you missed the relevant part of the video to film your door panel.

So you don't understand that those roads see temps between -10 and 105 every year?  Not the mention the constand abuse from snow plows for months.  

If you can design a better road at a good price, I'm sure you'll be a very rich man in no time.

Ha-ha that's awesome I wanna try looks kinda fun. I'm guessing they fucked up the front end and that's why they swerved but I'm pretty sure the brakes would still work

I've had a truck airborne a couple of times.  The landings are hard!  Both times I broke some front end components.  Not to the point of loss of control but damn I sure don't do that stuff anymore!

The fuck? Good job DPS on the hazard warning AT the hazard rather than ahead of it. Not saying the driver shouldn't have been paying attention, but it looked like the only visible signs for what appeared to be a major hazard to navigation were directly ON it.

That said, I was expecting a massive rollover. At least the SUV driver kept the shiny side up. He's gonna need new underwear and an alignment, but he didn't roll his car.

I'm also amazed at how many people can even see the street ahead of them.  On top of that the driver saw the bump, and then did the most pathetic braking attempt ever.  Slowed to 40mph and said, "That's probably enough."

Someone needs to break out a Trophy Truck and go at it.

If you ever take a close look at the opening for The Dukes of Hazzard, you can see that they bent the frame on one of the cars when they hit the ground.

I'm sure that frame was severely twisted and many steering/ suspension parts catastrophically failed as soon as it hit the bump.  Even if it landed on all 4 tires, there's no way it would roll strait.

Looked like something blew when he landed from the smoke on the passenger side. That might've caused a loss of control, but it sure is hard to discount the effect of assheadedness that is so inarguably on display.

You can't tell from the vid if there were additional warning signs on the other side of the overpass (before the hazard).

You'd think the big ass hazard signs on both sides of the road would have been an indication to (I dunno) slow the hell down a little though....

I'm surprised they didn't close the road way to get that fixed if the "bump" was that large and dangerous.

It looks like there was a sizable piece of debris left where he landed.  You can see it at the very end of the video.

Right now I'm doing my best to imagine a guy on a crotch rocket coming down that stretch of highway at about 165.
