Managed to hit the concrete barriers on both sides of a 3 lane highway. Luckily didn't hit anyone but traffic was about 3km long an hour later and caused another accident within the traffic jam itself.

Edit:grammar, and obligatory - I took the frame from my partner's video who captured it for me, as I was busy avoiding the debris scattered all over the highway trying not to get a puncture. I don't touch my phone while I drive, and hope you don't either.

Short answer: no. Long answer: fuck yeah

We live in a world that is about to get fucked by climate change. If you think a few Forrest fires is bad, wait until entire crops start dying and people want more food and water than the world will be able to produce. Yet here we are producing wasteful shit cars for a tiny amount of people with tiny penises that have the need to let thousands of homeless in the street know that they VROOOOOOMMM VROOOOOMM at four in the morning. Yes, real example.

Then, people who got the money to buy this likely got that money from places where in the end a whole lot of other people got screwed over. The difference between the poorest and the rich shouldn't pass 1:10, yet somehow it passed 1:1.000.000 and nobody has a problem. Here in Vancouver there is an enormous homeless problem, and these assholes can drive around in a stupid overpriced car going nowhere? Can we PLEASE for once tax these assholes, then use the money to properly care for the less fortunate? Why is that so hard? But muy caahaaaaarr! I don't give a fuck.

Then, the people driving these cars (at least here in Vancouver) are the douche types who just can't stop showing off hoe much money they have. You know the type, only wears the absolute most expensive clothes brands, must have at least 5 gold chains, some 100.000 dollar watch, that sort of crap. And then let's VROOOOOOMMM accelerate 0-100 in a 100 meter street only to slam full in the breaks on the next stoplight, then rinse and repeat.

So yeah, fuck all that, get rid of these useless showoff machines.
