Impatient Jerk In A BMW Ends Up In One Of The Dumbest Crashes We've Seen This Year

A BMW 3-series driver in Albany, New York made himself look like a complete chump with this ambitious overtake on a school bus

Out of sheer impatience - and we’re guessing a side helping of rage - this imbecile in a BMW 3-series went for a gap that simply wasn’t there. Either he didn’t know the road and wasn’t expecting the big concrete barrier to appear, or he genuinely thought he could make it in front of the dashcam car and the school bus in time.

Whatever the case, he ended up looking like a complete fool, damaging his own car and hitting the school bus in the process.

Speaking about the crash in the comments, the uploader and driver of the dashcam car said:

As for the comments about me letting the bus in: I guess I should have included another 10 seconds onto the start of the video. Everyone was stopped in front of me all the way to the light under the bridge. I drive this road everyday[sic] and the cars in my lane let out the cars from the side street (where the bus is). 1 for 1.

The bus just took too long to go and I already committed to letting him go. Also, I turn left at the light like that everyday. There are a few indents in the pavement on the left side of the road that I hit once, not again. I didn’t know the bmw was on my side until I saw him on my side. It all happened kind of fast.

Not defending the BMW driver (because they’re a knob for trying the move in the first place) but I’m pretty sure they were just trying to get through the light and the dashcam drivers comment of not seeing the car has got to be bs because they clearly accelerate when the car gets along side so they can block the bmw from moving in so don’t act all innocent (don’t worry id probably do the same)

Or they could have just accelerated because the light was already turning yellow when they started to go through the intersection, both cars broke NYS law with that.

He actually just sped up but he didnt turn properly and tried to block him from turning. Notice at the end he turned his car back from going almost straight. Lesson is, dont let them know your intention if youre overtakig.

Only use BMW driving techniques taught by Alex Kersten, or this happens
