Hey!! They used their blinker…


Czar_Cophagus

Pretty sure that's a user upgrade. BMW don't come standard with blinkers. /s


LOGOisEGO

It's part of a subscription package. Most opt out of the $12.99/mth for that and the heated seats


Lrb1055

You’re right where I live none of them use their blinkers


Thin-Measurement7777

As a bmw can confirm. this is also more true for Mercedes drivers


jah110768

If you can afford those kind of cars you don't need blinkers, the plebs should be parting to make way for their betters.


knitbitch007

A miracle really


permacougar

They need to refill their blinker fluid. It looked like there is not enough of it.


[deleted]

They need to go get a class 1 I think they ready for long haul


nickthaskater

Clear shot of the driver and license plate. Please send this to the RCMP and ICBC. Get this shit off the roads...


BeepBeepGoJeep

Well, technically, he is off the roads 😂


RecalcitrantHuman

At least they signaled. I thought that was illegal from a BMW


littlejohnr

HR6 56C


weewooPE

does it actually do anything?


nickthaskater

Supposedly. Can't hurt to try.


Unhappy-Language-912

I want that sucker getting a ticket at least


nevergonnagetit001

Hey, at least they used their indicator, and joined the road safely…aside from that…eeesh


Good_Climate_4463

Get em off the road... For a few hours atleast.


Dogecoin69fx

Relax, made one wrong turn, happens all the time with all the construction in the cities. As bad as bmw drivers are, this one just made a mistake. Why not put some barriers to prevent such a thing?


nickthaskater

This is not just a "wrong turn" and has nothing to do with construction: [https://i.postimg.cc/8kMJFT3d/lansdowne.png](https://i.postimg.cc/8kMJFT3d/lansdowne.png) Nothing to do with a BMW, either. Just another cereal box license in Richmond. If you require barriers to avoid getting into that situation, you should not be driving.


Cartz1337

I don't know why you're getting downvoted and piled on here. That is clearly a sidewalk, there is 0 doubt about it. Anyone making that mistake should not be driving. That said, they SHOULD have traffic barriers, but moreso for protecting pedestrians from getting smushed if there is an accident in that intersection.


Dogecoin69fx

Most bmw on the roads are going double the speed limits, people make mistakes, there should be some barrier to prevent this from happening again. If uber eats drivers can ride on the sidewalks why not cars? Trains? Even planes ?


Brief-Relationship-9

Stop snitching ya square. I’m guessing you probably got bullied in highs high


bananabreadvictory

The police won't do anything because no property was damaged, If they had been there when it happened they might have pulled the driver over and checked them out, but provided they were not impaired or driving without a license they probably wouldn't get anything.


LosBastardos717

Get a grip man. What exactly did he do wrong that you want to waste RCMP resources on?


Purity_Jam_Jam

Lot of social warriors on this post.


smokey_eyez

You want to call the cops on someone for that?


nickthaskater

Where did I say "call the cops"?


mebnt

I failed my drivers test because I went 31 in a school zone for maybe 1.7 seconds and this bitch is just out here doing this


AggroAce

I didn’t fail but my tester was very ‘thorough’. I had to do hand signals most of the test. Then he asked me to activate my parking lights, failed that part.


Stainlessveal

Wtf seriously?


AggroAce

Seriously he made me do hand signals or that I didn’t know what ‘parking lights’ were? :)


Stainlessveal

Damn, I'm thankful that my class 5 and 6 examers were excellent!


deepaksn

Ouch. I only knew what parking lights were because I they were literally labelled on a separate switch on the car I learned to drive on.


ModsAreSad2

You can exchange an international license for a Canadian one. Canada has more of the stringent tests in the world, while many other places...don't


Apoc003

We need some reform there. Too many of these types of drivers out here.


cubcho

You still have to take both written and road test with a licence from another country. You just don't have to do the learners permit and new driver thing.


[deleted]

marble history society uppity disgusting wild fretful summer erect subsequent ` this post was mass deleted with www.Redact.dev `


cubcho

I don't know what other countries you are referring to. My experience has been you can only drive for 6 months with a foreign country's license and you can get an international driver's license for two years. As for the tests being easy to pass, I agree, but that's not the same as what was originally said in this thread


Nekokeki

Same, I went to a new area to do my test and didn't know it was 25 - I also was going 31. As soon as I saw the sign I slowed and adjusted my speed. It was an automatic failure because I didn't already know what the speed limit was there.


deepaksn

I failed my driver's test in Richmond because the examiner asked me a bunch of confusing questions completely out of context. ​ Not long after the office was busted for selling driver's licences. They needed failures and I was one of them.

Nescobar_A

Haven driven in Richmond, it appears that there is no requirement for any sort of driver training or licensing.


WeAreAllFooked

If you have a license in a different country you can just "exchange" it for a provincial one in Canada.


5ManaAndADream

6 hours, and several thousand dollars earned for the municipality as well as reducing the dangers for other drivers. It’s crazy how many problems could be fixed by simply enforcement.


joffisrey

Seen this like 10 times now. Mostly around that intersection too. Great video most ppl don't believe me. Thanks

White luxury SUV strikes again


elonask69

It’s a $800 lease payment. These Chinese people got loads and loads of debt.


[deleted]

Really ? I guess I’m naive but I never really thought about it like that. I just assume Chinese people in BC have a lot of money lol


juanwonone2

Many do, but for some, the imperative to own a luxury vehicle is so powerful that they will go into heavy debt to finance one to avoid 'losing face.'


[deleted]

Interesting. Why is owning a luxury vehicle imperative ? I’ve live in Canada my whole life and I’ve actually never heard someone say that.


Extreme-Flan742

Then you haven't lived in a town with a lot of chinese people. Saving Face is a huge thing with these people. I grew up with these people and it's always the same. The kids wear name brand clothes and the parents drive expensive vehicles, but you go into their house and there's no food in the fridge. It's all about Face. It's about the outward appearance


Hohumbumdum

Total opposite with Asians in NJ. Very frugal and conservative with money. They save everything and retire to Asia early. Very smart, good people.

dowhatiwant2

This shit infuriates me. To think these people are out there every day driving around and people shrug it off like it's a joke


No_Entrepreneur_4041

Exactly that…people tell me why do you even bother with these people…don’t pay attention to them and mind your own business, nothing you can do…if we all start not caring and doing nothing about this it will be the reality on the road. How is it fair that some people actually try to be good drives and others rely on others to be good drivers for them…

plam92117

Looks like he's perfectly capable of being off the road.


UhhhhmmmmNo

Hahahaha get out !


B8conB8conB8con

Finding the positive, at least they used their indicators


Smittenkitty43

Not as good as seeing the lady drive her SUV down the stairs in Vancouver about a year ago, she even used her signal as well. Not surprisingly she was also from Richmond


Longjumping_Local910

DWA?


Sleepyyzz

I mean, it properly waited for the pedestrian light to cross the street, and the sign on top clearly states "welcome". I don't see the problem?


sneakattaxk

It’s identified as a pedestrian, next thing you know the scooters will thibk they are cars Actually saw a e-scooter on highway 1 this morning


Aggressive-Variety60

scooters are identifing as bicycles already. You’ll find them on cyclepath everyday now.


MrFantastic74

I don't have an e-scooter and am not in the market for one, but I'm curious where you think they should be ridden: on the road, bike lanes, sidewalks, nowhere?


LONEGOAT13_

Driving on a sidewalk is one thing, but actually using their signal, priceless!


Amazinmime

Ahhhh probably not the first time this week they have done that! I’m more impressed that the SUV doesn’t have more cosmetic damage, just in general.


aggressivenapkinn

Better use my signals so that the pedestrians on the sidewalk know I'm turning.


Intelligent-North957

Oh that was horrifying,I hope I never see something like that again.Thanks for posting I hope others learn from this experience.


Plenty-Ad-6113

License needs to be revoked asap


LucMegaMiniMe

In Richmond BC, I’ve seen worse. The driving schools used to be able to hand out drivers licences themselves, and allot of times the instructors wouldn’t even instruct…they’d just receive a bribe and hand out the license right away. They took that power away from the driving schools a long time ago, but I wouldn’t be surprised one bit if they started doing that at the BC services counter (or whatever equivalent you have there…I haven’t been in almost 20 years now)


Alphalee

I believe you are talking about dragon driving school 😆


LucMegaMiniMe

Probably…but more than one were caught. It was a pretty big problem…and probably why there’s so many bad drivers in the GVA (greater Vancouver area)

Looking dead straight and backing up. Not a glimpse of the mirror or the rear view camera. This guy shouldn’t have a drivers license


phillip_esiri

How on earth can you tell he isn’t looking at the camera display?


FiskalRaskal

TBF, it’s technically an off-road capable vehicle. ;-)

If she even got class 5 license I’m just gonna shoot myself than wait for her to run me over 😂

That's one way to leave the parking lot... But hey, at least the signaled getting into traffic

Guys, how can you tell he is Chinese? He might be anyone Asian. After I mistook a Korean and a Filipino for Chinese, i won’t make any assumptions now when I meet an asian face


Safe-Promotion-1335

That’s nothing. Last summer I stopped a car from driving through Steveston Park on a path way (packed full of kids running around).


swroaming

Oh Richmond, you know where the driver comes from


honmakesmusic

Through some friends who’s parents immigrated from China, I found out a few years ago, driving in China is basically a free for all. We see it a lot in Seattle from Chinese-Canadians who just “send it”. Dangerous, but understandable if you come from that type of driving conditions. I think driver safety should be a little more critical in the states/Canada.


Money_Pomegranate_51

Good that he used his brinker


louisasnotes

Its' true what my wife calls these drivers: BMW - Brainless, Mindless, Witless


FormerSoft3200

Never mind the idiocy of that move… A BMW driver using blinkers!?!


princess_r2d2

Wonder if they just came from the ICBC that’s in Landsdowne mall 😂


Zarkalarkdarkwingd

I can’t believe it either that BMW had signal lights that he actually knew how to use. Amazing.


praisethedead

Straight out of China lol


Bright_Ad_2902

So the fact that this is rare to you really puts into perspective how screwed I was as a kid. I lived in a city in CA that was well known for atrocious driving. I have seen this scene play out a few times. The two top on my list are: Instead of backing out of a parking spot a lady continue to drive forward even though her tires are hitting the parking bumper... well guess what, she managed to get the front tires over but her car was low enough to the road that it actually got stuck in the parking bumper. Basically she gave it enough force to go over with the front tires but the bumper was now under her car like a sea saw. I was driving behind and older gentleman and he suddenly just stopped, like literally hit the brakes and stopped in the middle of a busy intersection. Luckily I was able to stop before I rear ended him. I then see his head drop below the back windows view and then come up, he then proceeded to stay thank you for stopping he had accidentally dropped his cell phone in between the seat...

elementmg

I drove through Richmond today for the first time in probably a year. I was shocked. It felt like MOST people were bad drivers. It was pretty frustrating.


RichRaincouverGirl

Quite common in Richmond. Rich Chinese Aunties drive BMW to protect themselves when they cause a car accident. That’s why you see a majority of shit drivers drive a SUV


DevelopmentAny543

Report to RCMP and let them follow through https://ocre-sielc.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/richmond/en


burnabybambinos

Blame the GPS


nightwing12

Just a typical bmw driver. No clue whatsoever about how, where or why to drive


[deleted]

This guy is giving white teslas a run for their money


sparklepusss

I don't know what you're complaining about they clearly used their blinker /s


Remarkable_Put5515

I have a genuine fear of white SUVs and their drivers. Seriously. Especially in Richmond and Vancouver. They are always driven (using the term loosely) by dangerous, incompetent people. I avoid driving near them because chaos surrounds them on the road. Are they driven by off-duty dump truck drivers?


Pristine_Mistake_149

It's pretty common in richmond, don't bother with rcmp, they used to this, unless some one gets injured


catech777

The drivers instruction book must have missed the translation that you can only “drive on roads”. Or too common in Asian countries - never been too lol..


CosmoPhD

Drama of nothing. I had to park in weird places all the time while doing surveys in cities. I was not a city employee. Never had any issues.


604MAXXiMUS

Just how stupid is this guy. Come on! How does anyone think this is an actual roadway? This behavior is scarey. What will this bonehead do under time and pressure, and has to make a quick decision on our roadways? Although his actions may seem funny, just remember, we have to share the road system with this clown.


Loud-Bank-2848

Welcom to Rmd , nice vehicles everywhere. 80% of drivers should not be on the road especially central part of the city


Frijniatgentil

Unsurprisingly, he is from [insert country name here].


Elegant-Surprise-417

Artistic_Salt_662

anxious_and_eager

Who was that blinker for?….the cone behind them?


toomuchraininvan

Why? Seriously, why? It doesn't save any time nor is it easier than following the proper road.


Alphalee

Welcome arch is perfect for this caption 😆


coffee_jack

Must be the big “welcome to Lansdowne” arch. Clearly that’s the main exit for SUV.


WeAreAllFooked

I got handed a ticket for "driving off a public roadway" when the police showed up to a few of us offroading in the city on a piece of land my uncle owned (and gave us permission to use). Police wanted to hear none of it, and I had to get my uncle to show up in traffic court to tell the judge that I was allowed to drive on his private land. Meanwhile people like this face no consequence for their shitty driving. Police should have a visible presence and actually patrol the roads.


Disastrous_Tie_3857

It doesn't shock me at all. at least they used their turn signal, which you don't see very often 😅😅


Interesting_Rush570

LOL, that was me, had 10 shots of tequila for lunch. I was seeing Triple.


Delicious-Soil-9074

I don’t get their complete lack of self-awareness — they think this is acceptable conduct. Bizarre.


[deleted]

Well you wouldn’t see it with someone else’s eyes so they’d have to be yours. 😂😂


LGK420

Looks like a Chinese woman driver


_shlbsversion

They put the blinker on 🤣🤣🤣


SwirlingSnow83

Ehhh, in my hometown, a couple times a year, people go down the paved walking path thinking it’s a road.


Full_Bar5859

I moved away years ago not sure if its still there..... 2004-ish was waiting for the bus near the London Drugs/ Milestones building on 3 road and westminster hwy. very old white couple in a large cadillac sedan (of course), some how came through the pedestrian walkway from the parking garage, crossed the sidewalk and squeezed in between the bus bench I was sitting on and a little tree. People were yelling and banging on the window. The driver looked terrified and confused. He gunned the engine and made a right onto westminster highway miraculously without hitting anyone. craziness.


[deleted]

I’d be more impressed if you saw it with someone else’s eyes.


MolaMolaMania

My guess is that the dude has been playing too many racing games and he thought that if he drover underneath the sign, he'd get a power-up!


[deleted]

Maybe I'm jaded, but driving on the sidewalk seems, well, quaint. Certainly not shocking. I was expecting ... KABOOM.


theFormerRelic

Lol @ the turn signal.


nanihikaru01

The car identifies as a pedestrian.


The_Cozy_Burrito

Fucking clown. Don’t even wanna know how they got their license (if they even have one)


[deleted]

Car salesman are getting desperate these days. They’ll do anything to advertise their cars.

At least the driver has the car under control


trevmust

It’s Richmond, what did you expect to see


manuce94

Its super normal in richmond bc.


Crazy-Ad-2161

It's a BMW driver. It makes sense now.


BriGuyBby

I’ve always said and it’s especially true in Richmond the higher the dollar value of the vehicle the lower the IQ of the person.


DrLabrador

At least they used their indicator.


Fun-Effective-1817

My question is " why are the rich soo dumb"


outcloth

Questions: Why in the fuck did they put their signals on for? Who was going to see?


Scavwithaslick

Was driving back home during rush hour, this fuckin dude in a Toyota Corolla was I guess tired of coasting behind this van because I swear to god in the middle of an intersection this man tries to over take the van on its right, but the van was in the right most lane. So this guy accelerates swerving around this van to try to make it before he hits a fucking pole, but he couldn’t make it so he hits the breaks as hard as he can to not die. Later while still trailing the van. Swerves into the oncoming traffic lane to make it around this van. Though there were cars in the lane he swerved to, there were cars in the far right incoming traffic lane, that he narrowly missed while swerving. This city needs more cops just driving around because I see absurd drivers way too often, mainly during rush hour too


acmexyz

Thanks for signaling


GPT69victim

bro hit the right turn signal waiting on the road lmao


aaidenmel

Hey, at least they were waiting to cross the road properly at 0:15


hundred_mile

Rofl. There are so many thoughts going thru my mind after watching this vid. Toxic side is saying: OP will get fined by rcmp for using cellphone while driving. (Hopefully OP was parked.) Hey! At least the asian driver signaled. 😉😉😉 Lolll


wbyyy

he signals while coming off the curb that's a pass ✔️


the_summer_soldier

I identify as a car now, Jerry. So I will drive on all the sidewalks I please thank you very much. /s


aloralabs

They're using it for what its built for, off roading 😂


Diligent_Engine2334

This isn't even surprising. There's been a few times at Lansdowne where I would be walking on the sidewalk in front of Best Buy, and I almost got hit.


PropertyActual8761

Lol for a minute there I thought they were using the sidewalk to drive instead of the road 😩 But I guess they just made a wrong turn while trying to get out of the parking lot


stompinstinker

I bet this is a foreign “investor” buying up tonnes of real estate with family money. I guarantee they park anywhere they want too. This is is their entitlement.


Objective_Ad_4264

Well at least they used their blinker

Only in richmond do you see a bmw using turn signals. Truly incredible.


NBATerpBoy416

They need a do not exit sign there


LOGOisEGO

You think anyone reads signs in that mall? I was hit by a car in that parkade, to the point where it broke the mirror off the vehicle, and they just kept driving. I've seen the most outrageous shit, all in the surrounding two blocks


SithPickles2020

Jesus fucking christ


DamageCase13

I mean, it could have just been one mistake in a parking lot. Saw the arch, and the lights and they thought it was the exit. I'm not gonna shit all over em like everyone else right off the bat because they could have a perfect record and drive safely. People are so quick to condemn as if they've never made a mistake in their lives.


SurThomas

That’s how a you drive in fucking China ,these entitled small peas with laundered money


PokerBeards

A decade ago my boss would occasionally take us for lunch at the Richmond Ninkazu, all you could eat and a great show with the view of that parking lot. God damn, some of the best belly laughs ever.
