BlackiPodI love how the strange white shirted man, after many correction attempts by the driver, reaches out and grabs the wheel like he can save the day.

When you see it in slow motion, it seems that he's just grabbing it for the sake of holding something. After all, there's not much to hold onto when you're in the front. |

"I don't think a driving instructor would let his students go 100 KM/H."100 km/h is the highway speed in many European countries, on freeways it's often more than 100 km/h.
I actually drove 150 km/h (about 95 mph) during a driving lesson ... but that was in Germany (no speed limit on freeways). |

"Must have had someone/something run them off the road. You're a pretty bad driver if you lose control at 60mph."I flipped a mini van over at 35 miles an hour. :D That takes skill. lol |

Even though he didn't appear to try the door, I'm pretty sure it was all jammed up & wouldn't have opened anyway. |

I was in a roll-over accident with my ex. We rolled about three times down a slope and ended up upside down. It was terrifying...I thought I was going to die while it was happening. My seatbelt got stuck and my ex had to help free me...and then we had to crawl out the window into sticker bushes...real nice. |

"it was staged, why else would they have a television camera?"Yeah i'm sure they wrecked their car and risked their lives so they could put a video on youtube. |

The reason they had cameras was because they were a TV crew. Duh.Airbags didn't go off because the front of the vehicle wasn't damaged to set them off. My parents and little brothers were involved in a roll-over accident about a month ago. Got hit on the rear passenger side. Fish-tailed, and rolled the car 3 times. It was a Dodge Durango. |

yeah, it looks like they were already flipping when the passenger grabbed the wheel as a handle... |

I know exactly how the feels.
2 weeks ago, my mom, my brother and I were on the road early in the morning. It had just rained so the road was still wet. We were going about 50MPH when suddenly the car started to hydroplane. All i could see outside the window were cars coming our way. We hit the small cement wall (not sure what is called) and my window shattered. Needless to say, a car hit us. Unbelievably noone was hurt. The cars weren´t that damaged either. It still scared the poo out of me though lol. |

that was scary. It looked like the driver's head hit the window...very lucky - could have been much worse. And thank goodness they were wearing seatbelts. |

RyanF701, that statement was not entirely accurate. While the NATIONAL speed limit is still 55mph, over the last few years states have been permitted to set their own speed limits. For example, here in New York, the speed limit is 65mph outside of urban areas, and out west (Montana I believe) the speed limit for cars during daylight hours is 75mph. Yeah IAB... looks like my lurking days are over... |

" That's only 62 mph. If a driving instructor didn't let his students drive at highway speeds, then he ain't doing his job. "Hm, highway speeds here only go up to 55. But any speed is too fast if your hydroplaning :P |

Must have had someone/something run them off the road. You're a pretty bad driver if you lose control at 60mph. |

When I was 16 I swerved to avoid a deer, drove up and embankment and flipped, then slide upside-down for about 30ft. My seatbelt saved my life that day. That accident is the reason I will never buy a convertible.I remember there were sparks flying from where the sunroof used to be and I was grabbing the bottom of the steering wheel and pulling myself down and away from the roof, worried that my hair might catch on fire. The funny thing is, the thing that kept going through my head as I slid was, "Oh my God I am in so much trouble...my parents are going to kill me! I wonder if the car will still be driveable...maybe I can just flip it back over." I wasn't scared at all during the accident. It was afterward, when I was hanging upside-down and couldn't get out of my seatbelt that I freaked out. |
