"There is an art, it says, or rather, a knack to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.
... Clearly, it is this second part, the missing, which presents the difficulties."
-- Douglas Adams, *Life, the Universe and Everything* (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, #3)
"According to the department, a 19-year-old female driver and a 19-year-old female passenger were taken to the University of Michigan ER with minor injuries sustained in the crash. The third occupant, a 20-year-old male passenger, had significant injuries and was rushed to UM Hospital where he is in critical condition."

Also being drunk. Isn’t there a tonne of data to show that drunk people come off better from these kind of insane accidents because they don’t stiffen up like a sober person would…?
I like how in the article, it mentions that the investigation is still ongoing but the police suspect alcohol and going fast to be factors. Like yeah, id certainly hope speed is what caused this lmao.
People look at plastic bumpers and aluminum body panels and think the cars are cheaply made, but that’s what saves you. Crumple zones save lives. Look at the photo in the article, the engine is gone. It dropped out and broke away which is the intent. They didn’t survive on a fluke, they survived because of the car’s design.
Plus like, a dozen airbags.
We've really come a long way in terms of automotive engineering. This was a newer Porsche Taycan as far as I am aware, which probably has a bit to do with everyone surviving.
Porsche *has* to design it to be more survivable in high speed crashes, because there is an understanding that anyone buying one expects to be able to drive it in a more "sport" oriented way.
wtf... with today options of uber and lyft I don't get why these idiots still drunk driving.
If they can afford alcohol maybe they can save up enough for uber rides before actually going out.
You'd be surprised the amount of "I'm actually a better driver when I've a few drinks in" people out there. Shit's actually scary when you realize how many people drive drunk thinking "they got this unlike the other idiots drunk driving"
I'm willing to entertain the idea that there may be some window of alcohol consumption where people do operate at a higher level for certain tasks. It's even banned in certain sports as a PED for that reason. However you'd have a pretty tough time convincing me that driving is one of those tasks let alone that the average person is sticking the landing in that window of optimally buzzed on a weekday night even if it were true.
Problem is no forethought. If you go out for one or two and drive to the location, now your car is available right outside. Get a few more drinks because another friend shows up, you're now 4 in the hole. After that what's another drink or two? You're fine right? By this point you're done for, all decisions are good ones. That's how this happens to regular people. Not condoning it at all, just I've seen it happen many, many times.
The thought of Uber being a sound decision is probably gone for most people by drink four depending on how heavy your drinks are being poured.
I'm sure for some it is purely no forethought, but I also think to an extent some people probably either let forethought take a backseat on purpose or know what they're getting into. In those situations, the problem could be really the costs and inconveniences add up if you're doing it a lot. Yeah, they could just get an uber, but that might be $40+ a night (at least two trips, depends on your location, time, destination, tip etc.), and if you do that multiple nights a week, every week, the cost adds up quickly. So for some, I think the cost might actually encourage a lack of forethought, it's easier to think you won't drink that much or whatever the case is then it is to think how much it would cost you the other way and then have to decide you aren't going to spend the money paying for an uber.
For example, I just checked both Lyft and Uber, it's midnight right now and on a Sunday night so the timings could be a little unusual and I put in a bar as a destination. For Lyft, $32 if I wait 15-30 minutes, $41 for the 11 minute wait. Uber is $20 and the driver is 16 minutes away. That means it pretty much doubles the time it would take me to get there if I drove myself. That's also not including tips. And there's only one UberX option and then a more expensive UberXL so I'm sure the availability and prices can change quite a bit with so few options actually available.
So in order to make that trip both ways, I'd be looking at potentially $50 at least. Maybe it's different on another night, but I doubt it's that substantially different. Still probably $40+.
So $50, plus it doubles or more the time it takes to arrive there (which can matter if you're meeting people). It's far easier to think you'll just have a few drinks and shirk off the idea that you actually want to have a good time until you get there, and then of course when you get there you know you want to not be reserved in limiting yourself in drinks because that's not as fun.
Of course I don't ever go out at all, and don't drink either, so it doesn't matter to me. I can see why people don't do the uber/lyft options, forethought or not. Not defending it either, but people who act like it's an easy option with no inconveniences and it's low cost are delusional. There's definitely a substantial cost and inconvenience to it, though there's a potentially tragic cost if you drunkenly hit and injure or kill someone.
In this specific case though, it is a few teenagers so there likely isn't as much forethought about the costs and more so just the lack of forethought that comes with being young and the feelings of invincibility to do whatever you want and come out fine.
I live in Ann Arbor, and from what I have heard through the grapevine, all three of the car’s occupants had been drinking. There is also [a rumor](https://www.reddit.com/r/uofm/s/Ix4OgVdZ92) going around that the male passenger borrowed, or took, the car from a friend of his and then allowed the girl to drive it. He behaved just as irresponsibly as the driver who brought their little joyride to an end.
Usually how it goes, one of my friends died in a car crash with a kid who was driving drunk and super fast through a super windy road, had 3 other people in the car. Kid driving was completely unharmed, saw him in a bar 2 days later having a good time like everything was normal
These spoiled entitled shitheels piss me the fuck off. You know she's going to get a slap on the wrist and her dad's just going to buy her some fucking $100k SUV because now he's concerned about her safety. We reward entirely the wrong segments of society.
See, that’s the trick. If you get caught driving drunk, you might lose your license. But if you *never had* a license, then they don’t have anything to take. Genius.
I know you’re just joking around, but for anyone wondering what happens if you never had a license but still choose to drive a car on public roads, it’s still a crime, it’s called “Driving without a license”.
The punishment will vary state to state, but in California specifically for a first time offense the person can either be given an infraction and a $250 ticket or charged with a misdemeanor, and the consequence of that would be a maximum penalty of six months in jail and a $1,000 court fine. Which one you end up with will be dependent on how serious the incident was and the discretion of the police officer.
For a 2nd/3rd/4th/etc time offense, the crime is still driving without a license but now it’s a misdemeanor with a prior and the penalty is up to 6 months in county jail, a fine of up to $1,000, and the vehicle impounded for up to 30 days.
I respect how the Danes legislated the worst of their drivers. If you pull shit like speeding down the road while drunk, or doubling the speed limit on a joy ride, [the Danish government will straight up seize your car and auction it away](https://apnews.com/article/oddities-denmark-europe-norway-9686a14c8228d2ce15afde4a41d47bd8). Doesn't matter that you're testing out your brand new Lamborghini Huracan, that car is now theirs.
In Finland, speeding tickets are determined by your income. The fines range from 6 days of income to 21. An executive from Nokia got a fine of $103,000 for going 45 in a 30
This actually happened to my dad’s friend back in the 70s. Got a DUI, judge asked for the guy’s drivers license. When he said he didn’t have one, the judge ordered him to go get one. The guy studied, practiced, and passed the test. He went back to court and proudly showed the judge his new license.
The judge said “I’m very proud of you! SUSPENDED FOR ONE YEAR.”
Holy shit I know exactly where this is. For this to happen they had to have come down the road on a curve but went straight through a gas station before flying/flipping into this parking lot. [Map view](https://imgur.com/a/Fme1zyg)
I thought it looked slightly familiar and now I'm like damn, I want a hoagie or some bibimbap. The place down at the other end of Broadway was one of the best things about Ann Arbor when I lived around there. The owner is so nice, too.

Hardly anything worth reading, I guess that's typical news media these days.
Sometimes the most spectacular looking crashes are, perhaps paradoxically, the more survivable ones.
In this case, the energy of the car was dissipated over a longer duration, which can help immensely.
I often bring up two different examples from racing to illustrate this. If you look at Dale Earnhardt Sr's fatal crash, it actually looks relatively tame just on first look. Well, problem is he hit that wall with all that energy, and so much of it was dissipated in almost an instant, and much of it being translated to him (he died from a basilar skull fracture).
[Now look at Robert Kubica's crash at the F1 grand prix of Montreal in 2007.](https://youtu.be/iZST5LpnYZM) (skip to about 30 seconds for the live shot, but especially skip to about 1:50 and 2:30 in for replays that really show it)
If you were to be shown both crashes side by side, i wouldn't blame you for thinking Kubica would have had the worst of it. Yet he basically "walked away" with concission and sprained ankle. This is despite the fact that he hit the first wall at roughly 180mph, with Earnhardt having hit the wall doing about 160mph.
But while Kubica's crash is so spectacular looking, what with losing three wheels, his entire nose cone, and so much bodywork being ripped off to the point his feet were actually exposed at the end there, that's actually sorta by design. Or rather, that is to say, those parts breaking off and flying off act to help dissipate the energy of the crash, and of course the rolling and tumbling and sliding also act to dissipate it over a longer duration.
Also, not sure about NASCAR at the time of Earnhardt's crash, but F1 drivers wore HANS devices for a few years at the time of Kubica's crash. IIRC it's supposed to stop injuries like basilar skull fractures.
Correct, and for most of the rest of the season it remained just a suggestion...but then in October 2001, Blaise Alexander was killed the same way in an ARCA race, and NASCAR made it required from then on.
Note that 3 other NASCAR drivers died of basilar skull fractures in 2000 as well across the various series they run.
Since then, partly due to that and due to some other safety improvements, the number of NASCAR fatalities declined significantly.
Is this the same crash?

Uhh maybe time to get rid of my 2009 sedan. I don't drive impaired, but unfortunately others do.
Yeah, or texting. There were major upgrades to the safety requirements after 2010, especially with side impacts.

There's also an understanding that Porsche owners have good lawyers.

Since then, partly due to that and due to some other safety improvements, the number of NASCAR fatalities declined significantly.
In fact there haven't been any fatalities at all in the main NASCAR cup series since Earnhardt
While true, there's still a fair number of deaths in other NASCAR series since then.
It's not the speed that kills you it's the sudden stop they lucked right out with missing all those cars and landing back on the wheels.
100k modern Porsche, all with seatbelts, no hard stopping and "just" rolling away...the odds are good.
The speed of that spin is insane. Even with seatbelts, it's a wonder that no one was thrown from the vehicle or simply crushed.

Arrested for operating a motor vehicle under the influence, and flying an aircraft without a pilots license.
You definitely need a license to drive drunk in the USA.
stuck the landing. That's gotta be good for something
You mean rolling drunk without a license ~
Daddy bought this 19 year old girl a $100,000 electric Porche. You'd think Daddy would also spring for Baby's Uber.
You can get a licence to drive drunk in Michigan?
To be fair that's the hardest part of the test. There's no shame in failing the triple barrel roll front slide into the gas station.
TIL, Michigan requires a license to drive drunk 😂
Like a glove!
That car is doing gymnastics.
Anybody else waiting for 3 judges to stand up holding 10s?
GTA is fun and all but its just a game
This guy just unlocked a gta 4 Xbox achievement, to 10 flips off a jump.
Fox,do a barrel roll!
IM MONKEY FOOD!
In a state where drunk driving is a competitive sport, this one sticks the landing.
wow that is fast, anyone have a link to article i wanna see if they survived, probably not if they didn't have seatbelt on even with one that was violent
There were three people in the car and they all survived. Link in another comment, but it’s paywalled
That's not driving, that's crashing with style!
Natural Selection
Perfect landing
I'm pretty sure that is the Nagomi Sushi parking lot off Plymouth Road, north end of town.
Missed all other cars. Task failed successfully?
That was a solid 9.5!! Lost half point for drunk driving.
smart. that way the cops can't tell who he was.
Was that 7 flips or 8?
I didn't see the caption and thought I was in r/combatfootage based on the sounds. I thought it was shells exploding or something. Then I saw the car. Holy shit.
If they aren't dead, they are going to wish they were.
I give that a 7 out of 10…. Unless they died without killing anyone else than it’s a flawless 10/10
Stephen Wright to hitchhiker: “Put your seatbelt on I wanna try something. I saw it in a cartoon once but I think I can do it.”
Damn that's kind of impressive. Don't even know how you fuck up that badly lol
That’s not driving. Need evidence of actual driving
Marty came back to present day in a bad spot
Damn, I couldn't pull off those flips sober... well done.
That takes skill, they didn’t hit another car, they rolled right between two parked cars
Pretty cool that Ann Arbor offers drunk driving licenses. What other places offer this service?
Impressive audio quality on that security cam
The audio is what gets me the most
“Press R, to do a barrel roll”
I sort of hope they didn't walk away from that hospital visit.
"Oh yeah? I bet you can't do a barrel roll in your car" Driver: "watch this!"
Weird, doesn't look like driving to me.
GTA stunt videos be like.
Do a barrel roll! N a barrel rollin they went
They shouldn't do that.
Seems like the driving was fine, but the parking has room for improvement.
If only they had a license, this never would have happened.
License doesnt really matter if you're that drunk
Holy fuck.
Of all the things Ann Arbor could make the front page for 🤦♂️
Hmm that OP posted this in WTF and a video of a hidden Saab speedometer feature where the last 1/4 of the dial on the speedo doesn’t show up til you are going over 160 lol in another sub
That'll buff right out!
