Video: worst parking ever?
It's turning into a good week for world-beating YouTube clips.
First off we showed you a strong contender for the world's greatest drift video, and yesterday we discovered Barry Meade, the man who might very well be the world's greatest co-driver.
And now here's a heavy favourite for Worst Bit of Parking in The History of The World Ever.
Even worse than the awful, awful mess that the Canadian X5 driver makes of the parked cars is her (for it is indeed a her) post-crash reaction: sit very still for 30 seconds or so - presumably turning a disturbing shade of whitish green - before blazing out the car park before anyone notices.
We're told that the hapless parker was tracked down and will appear in court in early December. Can anyone suggest a decent defence to get her off the hook? Anyone?
Want to comment on this?
It's like something out of a Monster Trucks video... but it isn't... And to think they waste sooo much tax payers money chasing "speeders" when morons like that exist in the driving World...

Ha ha, seen a few car parks where that would sure make an improvement. Perhaps she could say she was drunk?

..I had no idea that was even possible! Isn't there some law in physics that prevents this, GRAVITY or something? How fast was she going!?

Good thing they found her and will drag her to court. I have returned to my parked car only to find it damaged and/or vandalized a few times, and boy did it make my blood boil. Seeing this video makes me want to run over her car with a tank. I hope that will be judges' ruling as well.

I'm quite surprised that the X5 manages to do this... not too bad for a SUV...

That's about right. Over here in the States women in SUVs are the most dangerous things on the road. Teenagers getting stoned while driving are less dangerous, and that's not a joke. If you come here and see a woman in an SUV, run and climb a tree. I have had four wrecks involving other cars in my life, all of them were being-rear ended at a stoplight by a woman in an SUV. Just some friendly travel advice.

I live not too far from where this happened, the best part is how she got caught. She obviously didn't stay around for the accident, but went back to the place a few days later. Someone recognized the car and reported it. If you're going to run from the scene of an accident, why come back?
