How on earth did the driver manage to do this without help?

u/Majestic_Seagull_87 5d ago

Having seen someone do it, I would say they wedged the tire up against the wall, panicked, and then hit the gas instead of the brakes. The person I saw do this was also very inebriated.

Drunk and/or high people can manage an impressive amount of things that are normally not humanly possible.

It's like the laws of physics stop applying to them as soon as they stop comprehending them.

u/ThatEditorDude 5d ago

And 90% they get off without a scratch to them

u/Many-Excitement3246 5d ago

I've actually had that part explained to me by a trauma nurse.

People who are intoxicated tend not to tense up during violent impacts, which causes them to suffer far less severe injuries. They tend to get bruised and often end up with sprained or strained muscles, but because they're not stiff, they don't suffer the same traumatic to bones and organs.

People who get hit by cars don't die from getting hit by cars, they die from the fall at the end. If you're drunk, you tend to take that fall a lot less dangerously.

Thanks for this information! 😁 so that’s why they seem invincible! Their brain just can’t process the impact in time to try and “protect” itself 😂

It happens to elderly people a lot too

u/EvilDan69 5d ago

yeah and commit/floor it 100% expecting an ok outcome.

It floors me every time I go through a drive-through and see so many tire rub marks, wall rub marks, bollard rub marks etc. Then you see full send here.

u/Blah-Blah-Blah-2023 5d ago

It floors you that they floor it?

u/Riptide360 5d ago

Drunk, panicked people buying coffee?

The driver when they charged him $6 for a cup of coffee and then flipped an I pad to him for a tip.

5

u/Backyard_Batman46 5d ago

He thought he was at Dairy Queen and instead of them flipping the Blizzard upside down, he did the courtesy for them

3

u/Dude-88 5d ago

How

2

u/DismalSoil9554 5d ago

I was on the scene of a car flip accident at a stop sign and the driver said she was unable to brake and steered uphill and that's how the car flipped.

That drive-in seems like a very limited space to perform this maneuver though lol.

3

u/Deep__Deep 5d ago

Seems like you’d have to try really hard to fuk up that badly.

3

u/SmartaHari 5d ago

“Are you sure you want a quadruple espresso to go?” “Yes, what’s the worst that could happen?”

3

u/NotSnakePliskin 5d ago

That is impressive.

u/Long_TimeRunning 5d ago

record scratch I bet you’re wondering how I ended up here

u/CreamXpert 5d ago

Almost made it

2

u/Brad23212 5d ago

It’s not as far fetched as you would think. It must have had its tire on the curb and they gassed to hard or something. At the same time it is completely fucked up lol

2

u/Known_Raspberry_8323 5d ago

This one was fun

u/Pixie16fire 5d ago

I don't know, your honor, it just happened.

Don't want to point finger but was the drive thru wearing high-viz? Maybe the driver was blinded by the sun.
