Wow, who the ---- would think taking that thing around the 'Ring is a good idea? Especially full of all sorts of crap.

Favorite part: idiot becomes airborn sideways...this is the exact moment of defecation lol.

Possibly Tanner Foust in the Raptor BTW.

Crashes always sound so scary in person or with video like that. When you hear the crunching, its not funny for me.

The ring has close barriers, but you pay by the meter you hit. I wouldnt recommend jumping them to save money though.

Hope whoever was driving is ok.

When you, as a people, selectively exterminate a couple million "other people", letting someone leave all their crap in their car really is not much of a faux pas.

It's Germany. They don't care - if you do something stupid, tough ---- and we'll charge you for the cleanup. It's not like the US, where they try to save you from yourself so they don't get sued.

Obviously, they need more lawyers in Germany.

Wait . . . am I seeing a connection?

Fae, you undercounted by about 4m.

Funny how you see Germany over there... it's the way we see a lot of things in America over here...

In Germany literally everything is fixed by a law (including the curve shape of a banana - no joke - and the angle of a tip of a lead pencil...)

I was more-or-less referring to the civil-law difference. In the US, the driver of the CR-V would sue Honda for making a car that can roll over, regardless of circumstance, and for not placing a prominent warning not to try racing in it. He would sue the 'Ring for not stopping him from being stupid. He would sue the local regional gov't for not preventing the 'Ring from allowing him to be stupid. He might even try to sue YouTube for the embarrassing broadcast of his ***-hattery.

In Germany, it's possible for something to be your own damn fault and, sorry, no suit for you!
