It’s a real thing that happened in the town of Rąbień in Poland, a drunk driver was speeding down a road, hit a roundabout and flew 60 metres through the air, before landing in a graveyard
Miraculously, the driver made it out alive, but the car was totalled
This summer, we were driving out of our neighborhood and came across a car that had all 4 tires completely blown out and destroyed. I was baffled at how that could happen, since it was a pretty calm spot of road. Maybe the police had put down spike strips to stop a fleeing car?
Then on my way back into the neighborhood I went around our round about and saw the tire tracks of a car that went right through the middle but then left the ground. The dude must have done exactly what was in this GIF!
They never show the full version of this gif, where you can see the elevated section of road the driver is aiming for. Have people seriously never seen a highway overpass? Do you guys just assume that every highway uses offramps instead of jumps?
See how annoying roundabouts can be when people just want to plow forward in a straight line? Roundabouts are such an inconvenience. Gotta slow down & pay attention & go around an obstacle & all that shit. TRAFFIC CALMING? What’s that? You know when you tell people to calm down, that only makes them angrier, right?
There is 5 roundabouts from the motorway to my home town. About 5 minute drive. 2 of those annoy me because they were not needed and do slow donw traffic. 3 were needed and are good.
I am amazed by how much of the car seems to go so far. Surely this is not real, right? (Can’t look at it closely enough on my phone)

A “not needed roundabout” is a new concept to me. Are they in a straight street?
Prwtty much. Straight road with an offshoot to a fucking golf course. Not that many people go there but they needed a roundabout I guess.
