Someone Needs To Teach This Dodge Challenger Guy How To Drive
Read the full story on The Auto Wire
We’ve seen some pathetic attempts at fleeing from police, but this guy in a Dodge Challenger is perhaps the worst ever. All joking aside, we seriously wonder if he’s had a single driving lesson, was intoxicated, or perhaps was suffering from a seizure during this bizarre dashcam footage.
Watch a fleeing Suzuki Hayabusa roast a pursuing Arkansas trooper.
The situation unfolds in Nashville, Tennessee as a Metro Nashville Police officer spotted the Mopar muscle car driving recklessly on Korean Veterans Boulevard at around 1:30 am on October 29. That officer gave chase and we see part of that in the shared dashcam footage.
Right off the bat we know this is going to be a weird one as the suspect signals right while using a ramp to get onto the divided freeway below. Why people use their blinkers during police chases, even to try throwing the cops off, is beyond us, but this guy does it.
But it all takes a turn for the worse, literally, after the Challenger gets onto the freeway. It’s like this suspect doesn’t understand how rear-wheel drive works. He just lays on the accelerator at the end of the turn, spinning the muscle car out so badly it does a 180, pointing directly at the police cruiser.
A sensible person would realize they suck at driving and just give up there. But this guy keeps going, doing more donuts in the freeway. He’s messing with the cop, is intoxicated, or is just awful at driving. Maybe it’s all three.
Finally, after doing yet another donut, the Dodge is pointed at the cop car and that’s when our suspect guns it, crashing right into the front end of the cruiser before taking off. That pretty much rules out that this suspect was just messing with the cop, leaving intoxication and incompetence as the only real explanations for his awful driving.
Apparently, he got away and that really makes us wonder how. But the guy later turned himself in to police. He should also hand his man card in for not being able to drive worth anything.
