Ever Heard Of Just Going AROUND !!!
Right from the first frame you just KNOW this is going to end badly. But I give due credit the morons errr.. I mean producers, they did use editing to build the suspense nicely. There are many questions, most of which can be answered with the simple phrase "Just go around…"
I do take points OFF the producers however for choosing the "punchline" to be the thumbnail-frame for the video. I use this same service for some of my videos and unlike YouTube, they let you choose what frame from the video to use as the thumbnail. These clown-dacks either didn’t bother to change the auto setting (which is a random frame, half way through the video), or even worse they chose to use the punchline as the thumbnail. Either way, it’s the equivalent of the movie posters for Empire Strikes Back showing the scene from the end with the captioning "Luke… I AM your Father…"
As funny as this is, it’s also part of the reason why insurance premiums continue to rise. Often when these things end badly, it’s VERY badly for the individual at the centre of the action. Like this guy. These incidents get filed under the category of "Nature taking care of it’s own problem". However the guy in this 4WD video lived and was well enough to be home filling out the insurance forms that night.

VOTD: Great For Those Tight Parking Spots
A healthy dose of dry British wit intersperses the good driving, the VERY good driving, and… the not so good driving in your Friday VOTD.
This is where I usually try to write some clever rejoinder that attempts to wrap everything up and reference it back to the theme of the post.
But today… well… I’ve got nothing….

VOTD: Sunday Bonus
FOUR, count then FOUR bonus Sunday videos.
The first is an interesting and well produced TV commercial for Shell Petroleum products, reinforcing their long term relationship with Ferrari.
The next three also for Shell. Based on the premise of what Michael Schumacher will do for a job now that he’s retired from F1.    ONE  TWO  THREE
