England - High Speed Crash Kills Car Passenger

TheCruxofBag · #1 05-01-2023, 01:04 PM

A man, in his 20s, died as the car he was a passenger in crashed into a lamppost. The collision took place in Rowley Regis, West Midlands, at about 05:30 BST.

A man, 26, was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving, but was released and will be voluntarily interviewed at a later date.

A third man was taken to hospital with a broken arm, along with a fourth man who had minor injuries.

Thats a fuck-up of epic proportions. Looks like a 30 mph zone

Nice find.

On a side note; love those 2 cars the camera owner has, very cool!

So much to love in this video:

- incredible tire squeal
- my favorite telephone / electrical / light pole collision on DR, sparks then a huge electrical flash as it shorts out
-coolest parked cars

The British really love to take corners and roundabouts fast. I drove there years ago and saw a guy take a roundabout in an convertible MG Midget at perhaps 40 mph, he leaned out of the car to keep the wheels on the ground around the corner...

I'm glad those gorgeous classics in the driveway didn't get hit

I had an MG Midget in the 70's, when I was young and stupid (now I'm old and stupid). Looking back, it's one of my "what the fuck were you thinking" situations. It's a car where a fender bender can turn into a fatality. Zero acceleration, took probably 25 seconds to get it to 60mph. And a heater didn't come standard on the car, that was an upcharge.
