That's pretty cool I'll have to check it out more. Thx!
I should wear it on a wrist band, that way if I have to show why I had to use my 30" breaker-bar-lug wrench to pacify someone doing a bad parking job ....

every time i watch this clip im thankful for the guardian angels. that guy was missed so narrowly it just must not have been his time. another frog hair of distance on way or other and he would have been mangled.

Sadly most people today have no clue of their surroundings. Not that it was smart but when we were young we use to drag race at a vacant industrial park at night. It was all closed off to any traffic with close to a mile of straightaway so plenty of distance for stopping. We'd set up cones at the end so no one would come in that way and you'd have to go around the building to where everyone was gathered. The local PD never bothered us and most times they'd stop by and checkout our rides and be on their way.

A Raceway was built for public drag racing close to where I live. Complete with stadium seating. It seems abandoned now.

both racers need to be charged with some heavy crimes.. I see it like they know the possible outcomes, they decided to go ahead and do something knowing full well and of free will. they are guilty. this is not a, "they caused an accident" moment. They decided that racing where they should not was important than the lives of others that may be around them and proceeded.
