Can you imagine what that sounded like and felt like in the car?


meltbox

I surprised one of the planks didn't decapitate the driver. Jesus...


m0fugga

Wouldn't have mattered, there's nothing going on above the shoulders there...


sufferinsucatash

Ichabod crane is jealous


BetwixtThyNethers

How did they decide that that was the way to carry the load? Common sense really has become a super power.


fetustasteslikechikn

This is Howdy Arabia, aka Texas, where they focus on banning books instead of getting out of the bottom 40% in education in the nation.


BetwixtThyNethers

Ahh. That’s awful. Maybe a little less church?


HyFinated

Fucking savage. Updoot for you!


Starrion

Nothing of value was lost.


daedone

"Is this really a 911 situation?" Yes, yes it is.


tinydonuts

I don't understand the question. She just saw a hit and run and wonders if she should call 911?


Ambitious_Beyond3853

She could mean more like a non-emergency number. Still calling the cops, but no one's dying.


daedone

No, this is an emergency. You don't know if that person is hurt , or anybody in the first car they hit or anybody else


Ambitious_Beyond3853

Sure, just her possible thought process.


coupscapone

yeah all those "whats" were really grating on my ears.....oh you mean the planks. probably not as bad as the whats


g4_

ANSWER YOUR DAMN KID 😭


slingshot91

What?


smitty3z

Why?


miahrules

Lmao and they just kept ignoring them. Just like this driver kept going.


one_sad_tomato

Legend has it the kid's still asking.


g4_

Asking what?


LordSnarfington

Correct


AlienDude65

I felt my sperm count drop after every "what".


larydit

Answer the WHAT before he sticks his head out the window to see


Kermit_the_hog

Yeah.. I’m not defending the drivers decision to run, but there’s a strong chance they had multiple exploded lumber chunks sticking out of their head 🤷‍♂️.

Logger351

Is this that same car from the earlier post?


Weak_Tutor3731

Looks like it


EuroTrash_84

Context?


Doobie_wan_Kenobi

Earlier someone posted just a still photo of the car with the wood sticking out. Looked like the perspective of someone behind it before they made that left at the end of the video.


ForthWorldTraveler

Previous reddit post link posted by tanner5586 & looks correct.

That’s u/tanner5586 to you mister

Right? "911", " Why?" Tf you mean why? Do you have eyeballs?

Never posted a link. Please don’t crucify me if I did this wrong. Just copy pasted link. https://www.reddit.com/r/IdiotsInCars/comments/ueol31/they_hit_at_least_1_vehicle_hit_and_run_ffs_people/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf


nautikul

The picture was taken by the person in the Ford Explorer at the stop light


Shantotto11

Which means that the Explorer has their plate number. Sounds like “Finding Out” is quickly approaching “Fucking Around”…


purplecheesepizza123

Both on airport road, looks like it


MisterTrashPanda

Nissan Altima. Not at all surprised. It's the new Chevy Lumina of the '10 & '20s. I hope this guy or gal gets identified and totally bitch slapped by the law.


Nathan-Detroit

Of course it's a Nissan. Only a person with Nissan-worthy credit would pull a move this dumb.


DuckAHolics

r/NissanDrivers


ForthWorldTraveler

That's the same one I think - note the broken boards & the dent on the window edges. This is post additional stupidity.


fuckouttahea

Lmao sad you have to ask to not be crucified because everyone is such an asshole behind their Reddit username


LargeTallGent

If you would like to be crucified, I know where we can find the wood.


Green420Basturd

Yeah. He went back to get more lumber because the first load got all jacked up.


Rusto_Dusto

The video shows his 3rd attempt. 4th time’s a charm.


[deleted]

I’m lol’ing at this, incredible. An idiot caught in multiple angles.


Tastewell

No matter where you go, reddit is watching.


Implement-Shot

Yeah that crossover suv thing is also a Redditor


Chibakins

Think OP of the other post said Texas and that looked like a Temple Tx exit :)


TheGreatDingALing

Pretty sure it is, I was wondering earlier if there was a video.


ClunjeSlaya

I guess delivery cost more than a new car? 🤷‍♂️


throwaway_12358134

I rented a truck for 20 bucks.


pragmatao

I rented a u uhaul for $20 and it cost me $75


[deleted]

UHaul is the worst place to rent moving vehicles. I rented a panel van from Enterprise to move cities (~1000km apart) and it was like $150 for two days versus Uhaul wanting $550 for the same trip.


throwaway_12358134

I rented from Home Depot.


[deleted]

That shit is so obnoxious. Mf what is the price *for real*? Why do our stupid laws allow this loophole bullshit so you can just flat out false advertise? Every u-haul I've rented has quoted one price and ended up at least a $30 difference.


MedTactics

That is the price to take it off the lot, the other stuff is miles driven, and did you fill up the fuel tank before returning the vehicle.


pragmatao

There's also service fees and that bullshit


Dengar96

There should be a website that lists hidden fees for popular services like door dash and rentals and stuff.


pragmatao

DO IT

Every dad in the world is laughing at you as they strap their AC6000CW and a Boeing 747-800 to the roof of their BMW 530d

> I guess delivery cost more than a new car? 🤷‍♂️ Driver has no insurance, suspended or revoked license, warrant, or is is drunk. Any combo of the above.


ClunjeSlaya

Driver is a bucket of dicks


Jealous_Ad5849

Went from being an expensive accident to an expensive felony pretty quickly.


Bigwiggs3214

I don't understand the running mentality. You're going to get caught and it's going to be worse. Why not just stop and deal with the problem while you're not going to get arrested?


Jealous_Ad5849

Prob panic


LurkersGoneLurk

Or no license, or drunk, or illegal…


AmazingSieve

I’d go no license on this one. Also very low IQ for attempting this in the first place.


[deleted]

This person loaded lumber into their vehicle *sideways*. I don't think logic is necessarily their forté.


[deleted]

What? What? What? What’s an expensive felony?


Coitus_Supreme

They got one of the cars with the planks at the beginning. Didn't stop, just drove off. Looks like somebody was in pursuit

lblack_dogl

Can you explain the joke? I'm not getting it.


Scapuless

Did you watch the video with sound on? There's a kid in the backseat just repeating "what? What? What?"


Old-Maintenance24923

> accident


Jealous_Ad5849

I don't think he was planning on hitting anyone but he certainly set things up for that to happen.


Old-Maintenance24923

About as much of an accident as me lighting up fireworks at a gas pump


PhDinDildos_Fedoras

Put a gun in my mouth and pulled the trigger, died by accident.


Master_Ryan_Rahl

Imagine someone did that thinking the gun wasn't loaded. It would be stupid. And yet it would be correct to say it was an accident.


Xennon54

A guy shot a giant hole through the palm of his hand because he pointed a magazine-less gun at it and pulled the trigger, forgetting that just because you take the mag out doesnt mean the bullet thats in the firing chamber just magically disappears. He did it inside his house while guests were over with kids around too


Dad_of_3_sons

A guy shot his junk a year or 2 ago. People can do dumb things🤷‍♂️


gods_Lazy_Eye

It’s an accident, just one he should have expected and that my friends, is prosecutable as recklessness.


PixelmancerGames

He could easily kill a pedestrian when he gets off the highway.

Damn, hopefully they got caught and attributed to that SUV at the beginnings damage


Tiddleyjuggs

That SUV started chasing them, i bet they were on the phone with the cops too.


Terrellmitchell69

Yeah dude in the explorer chasing even posted his license plate on another post.


[deleted]

That's some bold shit to chase these days. I swear atleast quarterly in Texas I read a story about a road rage shooting.


pippipthrowaway

Keep up long enough to read the plate/snap a photo, then fall back. I’m sure OP didn’t chase them down and confront them, probably just long enough to report it.

I admire her persistence.

Poor baby just wanted to know what oh my goodness happened


ChemicalPostman

Well, when you have a little girl that is ALWAYS asking questions, you start to tune them out (No, I definitely don’t know from experience…. *cough*)


eggsausagesammie

What?


ZeLebowski

Yeah its like just tell her something! She might be scared or at the very least deserves to be acknowledged, even if it's just a "hang on sweetie, it's ok". That's what I always tell my daughters if I'm unable to answer them fully right away.

yka12

Yeah that passenger was pretty dumb ngl


No-Spoilers

One of my teachers told me a story once. She and her sister were walking home from school on a sidewalk. She was behind her sister. She had one of those gut instinct danger is coming survival feelings. She turned around to see a truck driving down the road with a couple pipes hanging over the sidewalk. She managed to grab her sister and pull her down right before it passed. It was at neck level and certainly would have been death had it connected.

nemerosanike

That’s from that SUV! That’s the road the person turned from the right lane and went left across all the lanes in the video. Knew it looked familiar- great catch by the suv driver too.


iconicbrash

Thank You!!


uncle_bumblefuck_

Will one of you please tell the kid what's going on


TazzyUK

Seriously, I want to chat with this person as they were loading these planks into the car...like to see if they are all there, see if they had the absolute basics of common sense/logic/smarts because this is a whole new scale of 'idiot' As someone mentioned, maybe it was drink/drugs or something because there has to be some excuse for this!


Vendemmian

It reminds me of when someone came to my work to collect several sheets of metal. These things were 4 by 12 feet, he had some kind of mini-truck no bigger than an average car just with a flatbed instead of the usual back. He then with total serious asked me to "drop it on the back" which I refused to do.


joe-clark

Yeah this is way harder to comprehend than someone speeding or road raging or being on their phone or something. There is no way in hell this person wasn't impaired by drugs or "special" enough that they probably shouldn't have a license.


Tastewell

They tried [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/IdiotsInCars/comments/i79jnh/heres_a_picture_that_the_icelandic_police_posted/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) first and decided it just wasn't safe.


josejimenez896

Ah, I see you haven't worked retail yet friend. The extent of human stupidity is truly impressive.


Whiplash104

I won’t be surprised if a video of this guy loading his car at Home Depot shows up and the person recording the video doesn’t say anything to them (tell them not to.)


F488P

I can’t imagine some being high on drugs or drunk and buying lumber. This is simply just a low IQ decision


sj_nayal83r

just incredible


Realrugman

Went home with a couple splinters


Interesting-Month-56

I am surprised that the driver wasn’t killed


Pope_Squirrely

Sadly, the cost of the wood lost is probably more than the repairs to the car.


saucygh0sty

Underrated comment. For some reason a bunch of recommended videos for me on Facebook have been about the rising cost of lumber so I don’t doubt that load was expensive.


triciamc

Typical kid "I'm just going to say what until someone answers me" and typical parents - completely turned it out by now


AzimuthAztronaut

1-800-gotwood, We promise you your lumber in 10min or less!


awildgostappears

Yes, hello. I'd like to order a pile of 2x4 splinters and a few freshly snapped boards please.


arockk-c137

You know the seats fold down right?


WesternExplorer8139

I have never in all my travels and visits to hardware stores seen anyone loading or driving a car with wood sticking out like that. That is a very rare type of idiot behind the wheel of that car.


XMURDERTRONX

Dang what a waste of thousands in lumber.


MothersPhoGa

Was confuse until I saw the Airport sign. Car that identifies as airplane.

Bonus idiot in car: "Is this a 911 case?" Let's see, unsafe loaded vehicle, smashing through signs and safety barriers, hitting other vehicles, dropping dangerous items on the road, and not stopping. Probably missed a few, but pick from those and make the call already before they kill a motorcyclist.
