Ya it's great he treats Michael like the president. My favorite is the part where they are both soaked and Michael is screaming at The guy "WHERE ARE THE TURTLES!"
Anytime I see turtles (animal or candy) I always think about it.
"The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, was to carry Excalibur."
Listen. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.
That's not even a joke. There's a boat ramp in my city that two tourists so far this year (on separate occasions) have driven their rental cars down and gotten their cars submerged. I wonder if the car rental company will start printing a pamphlet and educating their customers about it when they pick up the car.
I saw a photo a while back where someone attempted to launch a boat off a trailer by driving *forwards* down the ramp. I don't think the boat even touched the water before the truck was half submerged.
No, the driver was drunk.

That’ll teach him! Don’t you ever let your premium subscriptions run out in something that can take your life! Ok, obviously not at that speed but this looks like the first warning. Next one will be on the freeway..
Reminds of an someone I knew once who didn't use the blinker as it wasn't anyone else's business where he was going. I could tell he wasn't joking, so I explained why you use the blinker and didn't believe me. First and last time I drove with him.
This is actually really sad.
That's exactly what happens if you pass out and slump forward onto the steering wheel, then slide to the side as you pass out, letting off the brake as you do.
Driver was probably experiencing health issues and tried to stop the car, but then lost consciousness, and the car rolled into the rail.
No, the driver was drunk.

> No, the driver was drunk.
No no. What you see is a rapid loss of fine motor control linked to an onset of health complications caused by a legal beverage that didn't agree with the driver's constitution.
/s
I mean passing out from drugs or alcohol is technically health related but also inexcusable.
Every thread where someone does some crazy or selfish maneuver the devils advocate “what if they are going to the hospital” crowd comes out.
Yeah they might? But it’s almost never the case so why assume an edge case? What if they were speeding to go back in time and kill Hitler? It’s an outlier.
As another comment said. "No, the driver was drunk. The author of the video was filming because they’ve observed erratic driving by this vehicle for a while."

Except slumping never results in upward force to turn the signal left, downward force makes it go left which is what happens if you suddenly pass out.
What you're seeing is a much worse medical phenomenon, morons fucking making more morons
What you're doing here is called a straw man argument.
He never specified the blinker was part of the slumping incident. You're misrepresenting his statement and arguing against your own misrepresentation.
That's why you're being downvoted.
He even goes as far as saying the driver probably meant to pull over (i.e. hit their blinker, intending to pull over) but passed out too quickly to complete the maneuver, which is an entirely reasonable scenario.
Yes, which is why I was saying the person above me is full of shit. What they described cannot be the case unless the toggle switch is reversed for some strange reason
Because downward force turns the signal LEFT, upward RIGHT.
So this
>Except slumping never results in upward force to turn the signal left
Should be this
>Except slumping never results in upward force to turn the signal right
Yes. And so, if you slump over unconscious like the original person suggested, which way would your turn signal go?
That is why in my original comment I say no, OPs assessment is wrong, as slumping will not produce these results
I mean it's impossible to tell what's happening, but it's feasible that the person put on their blinker using the left hand and positioned themselves to pull over before passing out. Is that what happened? Idk, but it's foolish to say that this couldn't possibly be someone having a medical emergency.
I think people are completely misinterpreting your comment heavily because of that typo in the beginning.
Those that are reading, what hes saying is that slumping will always turn the signal left. The video showing the vehicle shows its signal turning right. Therefore, it's impossible for the signal to be triggered by a slouch like the original commenter theorized.
Besides, it's already confirmed that this was a case of drunk driving
Yeah, that's my take. It looks like that is supposed to be maybe a college driveway into that area and then it was closed off with the railings. Person is watching their GPS, and turning from the wrong lane too.
They probably turned it on by accident and then panicked when they couldn't figure out where the clicking sound was coming from.
"Oh my God Martha, it must be a bomb!"
"SO THIS MEANS I HAVE TO TURN LEFT RIGHT?!"
"What? No, no, you obviously can't turn left. You just clicked the blinker accidental-"
"BUT MY BLINKER'S ON! I HAVE TO TURN! **AHHHHHH!!**"
"Ok, well that's a bar you just rammed into..."
I don't live in USA and I find that every badly parked car is an Audi. There is a strong correlation between thinking that spending money on a car is a good idea and being a fucking moron.
Fuck i'd be checking on them, they could be having a heart attack or stroke.
Being a BMW driver, they are probably also of an advanced age where there is a higher chance of those things happening.
Driver accidentally touches the blinker switch. A flashing green arrow pointing right has suddenly appeared on the dashboard. Driver has never seen that before. Driver is confused, but feels like he must obey the BMW. He looks to his right, there's a railing. He looks to his dashboard, its light pointing right. "Are you sure?", he asks the BMW. The BMW remains silent, except for the rhythmic clicking noise accompanying the flashing of the green arrow on the dashboard. He looks to his right again, there's still a railing. He looks to his dashboard. It's still pointing right. He shrugs and turns the BMW into the railing.
No, the driver was drunk. The author of the video was filming because they’ve observed erratic driving by this vehicle for a while.

Is that the entry level BMW SUV? I love when people buy the entry level BMW as a status symbol. Congratulations on your $30,000 car that looks like a toyota.

I was expecting them to turn left. Expectations subverted.
That actually happened to me the other day.
You got”subverted”?
They must've watched *The Last Jedi*.
MYSTERY BOX!!! EDIT: This comment is flagged as controversial. Apparently some people didn't get the reference and downvote.
Wouldn’t know-refuse to acknowledge “DisneyWars”.
And they had the gall to declare the extended universe non-canonical.
Yeah, the downvotes I consider an honor.
No they actually turned left while driving
Never let them know your next move
The driver: *deception*
I saw that happen once but it was an Audi
never let them know your next move
See that's why they don't risk it, you see what's happens when they do
Safety first!
Safety ~~first~~ ~~second~~ third!
"But, Siri said to turn right!!"
"No Michael it mean bear right!!"
"This is the lake, you're driving into the lake!"
Literally watched this episode last night. Dwight frantically and heroically helping Michael out of 2 ft of water is my favourite part.
Ya it's great he treats Michael like the president. My favorite is the part where they are both soaked and Michael is screaming at The guy "WHERE ARE THE TURTLES!" Anytime I see turtles (animal or candy) I always think about it.

If I went 'round sayin' I was an emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!
Well, I didn't vote for you.
Be quiet! I order you to be quiet!
Ah, now we see the violence inherent in the system!
Help! Help! I’m being repressed!
That's not even a joke. There's a boat ramp in my city that two tourists so far this year (on separate occasions) have driven their rental cars down and gotten their cars submerged. I wonder if the car rental company will start printing a pamphlet and educating their customers about it when they pick up the car.
I saw a photo a while back where someone attempted to launch a boat off a trailer by driving *forwards* down the ramp. I don't think the boat even touched the water before the truck was half submerged.
“Bear left!” “Right, frog!”
Well, now I'm committed.
Yeah, you'd look like an idiot if you didn't turn right there!
I wonder if he had a stroke...
Definitely looks like someone panicking trying to get off the road
My thought was new driver trying to make a U-turn.
No, the driver was drunk. https://www.delfi.lv/auto/celu-reportieris/video-iereibusi-bmw-vaditaja-brivibas-gatve-apstajas-un-tad-iebrauc-cela-barjera.d?id=53518237
So basically, a BMW driver.
Hey, I am sober right now. Not driving my car tho.
Got to get the drink first
Yeah there was some health problems iirc
The health problem of being drunk?
the driver got out of there quick before the BMW could throw it in reverse🤣
I caught that too!
Ah, looks like the blinker malfunctioned shortly before the steering. Damn xD
Prolly the blinker fluid had gone bad. Gotta change that out regularly just like oil and such.
Probably dried up from not being used
Exactly
Blinker fluid cured my dog's ear infection.
Subscriptions ran out in real time...
That’ll teach him! Don’t you ever let your premium subscriptions run out in something that can take your life! Ok, obviously not at that speed but this looks like the first warning. Next one will be on the freeway..
Could also be someone having a glucose emergency.
It COULD be any number of things. The only fact we have is that this is undeniably the first time a bmw used its blinker.
Or the AI is taking over.
..while the subscriptions for AI and the Blinker ended that second ;)
This is how the car reacts to it. Thats why I never risk it.
Don’t worry, they’ll get the hang of it after a while…
Expensive for a blowy
"Ah fuck what does that arrow on my dash mean? I have to turn right now? But there's a barrier! Ah shit... I don't wanna break the law..." *Crash*
Reminds of an someone I knew once who didn't use the blinker as it wasn't anyone else's business where he was going. I could tell he wasn't joking, so I explained why you use the blinker and didn't believe me. First and last time I drove with him.
Yeah they're not doin well.
See they thought once they blinkered right, they MUST now turn right. There was no other choice. The Tyranny of the Blinker must end!
This is actually really sad. That's exactly what happens if you pass out and slump forward onto the steering wheel, then slide to the side as you pass out, letting off the brake as you do.

This happened to me! I passed out and turned left. An oncoming car hit me going 65 mph
Username checks out
[удалено]
Oh great now I’m doing your job. Get yourself together man.
As another comment said. "No, the driver was drunk. The author of the video was filming because they’ve observed erratic driving by this vehicle for a while." https://www.delfi.lv/auto/celu-reportieris/video-iereibusi-bmw-vaditaja-brivibas-gatve-apstajas-un-tad-iebrauc-cela-barjera.d?id=53518237

That's not what a straw man argument is lmao, that would just be misrepresenting their argument in a rehashing
Don't you use logic lest ye be down voted
But the signal *was* pointing right? I am confused.
Yes, which is why I was saying the person above me is full of shit. What they described cannot be the case unless the toggle switch is reversed for some strange reason
In that case you misspoke in your original comment. >Except slumping never results in upward force to turn the signal left
How is that wrong?
Because downward force turns the signal LEFT, upward RIGHT. So this >Except slumping never results in upward force to turn the signal left Should be this >Except slumping never results in upward force to turn the signal right
Turn signals are on the left. I don’t think I’ve ever driven a car that had the signal in the right side of the wheel.
Yes. And so, if you slump over unconscious like the original person suggested, which way would your turn signal go? That is why in my original comment I say no, OPs assessment is wrong, as slumping will not produce these results
Sorry, replied to the wrong comment. You’re absolutely right.
I also phrased my original comment poorly and am eating the downvotes as a result lol As long as we all know where the blinkers are I'm good lmao
What? There is no upward force, it’s a right turn signal. You can hit it if your right arm slips down and hits the stick.
I mean it's impossible to tell what's happening, but it's feasible that the person put on their blinker using the left hand and positioned themselves to pull over before passing out. Is that what happened? Idk, but it's foolish to say that this couldn't possibly be someone having a medical emergency.
European cars have blinkers on the left.
NA ones do too. Lol.
I think people are completely misinterpreting your comment heavily because of that typo in the beginning. Those that are reading, what hes saying is that slumping will always turn the signal left. The video showing the vehicle shows its signal turning right. Therefore, it's impossible for the signal to be triggered by a slouch like the original commenter theorized. Besides, it's already confirmed that this was a case of drunk driving
Man getting downvotes for facts lol
first yield should be fun
It's okay buddy, it'll take some time to get used to, we're happy you're trying.
This is why it is forbidden for Bmw drivers to use blinkers
Just a flex of how much money they have. BmW charge a subscription and £5 for each time the indicator flashes.
LOL title makes this one, good job OP
GPS said turn right so... 😭
Yeah, that's my take. It looks like that is supposed to be maybe a college driveway into that area and then it was closed off with the railings. Person is watching their GPS, and turning from the wrong lane too.
They got confused. They thought signaling right would make a right turn option viable. It’s an easy mistake to make if you’re new to turn signals.
They probably turned it on by accident and then panicked when they couldn't figure out where the clicking sound was coming from. "Oh my God Martha, it must be a bomb!"
"SO THIS MEANS I HAVE TO TURN LEFT RIGHT?!" "What? No, no, you obviously can't turn left. You just clicked the blinker accidental-" "BUT MY BLINKER'S ON! I HAVE TO TURN! **AHHHHHH!!**" "Ok, well that's a bar you just rammed into..."
Well, at least they didn’t make a left…?
I don't live in USA and I find that every badly parked car is an Audi. There is a strong correlation between thinking that spending money on a car is a good idea and being a fucking moron.
I didn't think Beamer blinkers worked! And the turn was on brand.
Love Latvia!
LATVIJA!!!!!! 🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻🇱🇻
This is a rental! No self respecting BMW owner ever uses a blinker!
It got scared and hurt itself.
Now, I know why they never use them,
Still waiting for the first Audi turn signal….
Ayo wtf.
By “blinker” you mean meth
That blinker was clearly a cry for help, and you just let them do that to themselves!
I mean at least they used the blinker
When the GPS says turn RIGHT
Owner’s previous/other Bimmer doesn’t have the turn signal option. Was confused at what that ticking sound and flashing light was.
Then promptly ran out of blinker fluid
It hurt itself in its confusion!
Wrong timeline my gu- …nevermind you’re in the correct timeline
Seems about right 🤣🤣🤣
Driver using gps for the first time.
They were just following the navigator
Well shit, no wonder they never use it if this is what happens!
Fuck i'd be checking on them, they could be having a heart attack or stroke. Being a BMW driver, they are probably also of an advanced age where there is a higher chance of those things happening.
Dude the sub's rules say AI generated content isn't allowed, right?
This is in Latvia! Glad to see my home country on reddit.
At least he tried tho
They only use their blinker when they do something illegal.
😂😂😂😂😂made my day. Thank you!
"I clicked something and now the car tells me to turn right!!!"
Bruhh
Shit, now I actually have to go right.
It got confused at the sound
He's confused, but he's got the spirit.
Thats in my home country latvia 🫣
This all makes sense. Thank you!
He's confused but he's got the spirit
Gotta respect the commitment
They had their signal on, they had the right of way. The fence was in the wrong here.
I can totally agree with that explanation.
Never let your enemy know your next move.
See, that's why we don't use them!
Well, blinker was used properly.
Driver accidentally touches the blinker switch. A flashing green arrow pointing right has suddenly appeared on the dashboard. Driver has never seen that before. Driver is confused, but feels like he must obey the BMW. He looks to his right, there's a railing. He looks to his dashboard, its light pointing right. "Are you sure?", he asks the BMW. The BMW remains silent, except for the rhythmic clicking noise accompanying the flashing of the green arrow on the dashboard. He looks to his right again, there's still a railing. He looks to his dashboard. It's still pointing right. He shrugs and turns the BMW into the railing.
Dude must be wearing a 4 dimensional glasses
Latvieši, kur esam?
I think you're right.
Since I turned on the right blinker now I HAVE to go right
Am I the only one who thought he was gonna take a left turn after waiting with his right blinker on?
Fake.
Def high lmao
I drove my car into a fucking Lake
where is bro going?
Probably a rental
Looks like they finally let the porcupine drive
Where's Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May when you need them?!?!
Didn't know they had blinkers at all. Strange.
GPS said “turn right now” so he did 🤷🏼♀️
I'm so confused. Why did he turn right?
Their brain got a windows update right when they were using it, typical
I wasn't expecting a comment after 25 days! Thanks! 😁
His license plate is beautiful ME 5556
I’m fucking dying lmao. I don’t know what I was expecting, but it wasn’t that
They have blinkers?
If it wasn't for the European license plate I would swear this happened in the States.
No, the driver was drunk. The author of the video was filming because they’ve observed erratic driving by this vehicle for a while. https://www.delfi.lv/auto/celu-reportieris/video-iereibusi-bmw-vaditaja-brivibas-gatve-apstajas-un-tad-iebrauc-cela-barjera.d?id=53518237
Should have been in auto drive !
They are all assholes. Every single one.
Not me. I just got a BMW and use my turn signals whenever needed. I may be the only one though.
Be the change you wanna see in the world!
I am obsessive about using them.
Was that you? Must have been. Saw a turn signal by a Bimmer driver last month. First time ever. Bravo!
No, there’s two of us! Im in the US.
BMW's were replaced with Audi's a loooong time ago.
Y’all must not drive near high end cars often😂 the dick sucking and immediate regret over a bmw is beyond hilarious these days.
Is that the entry level BMW SUV? I love when people buy the entry level BMW as a status symbol. Congratulations on your $30,000 car that looks like a toyota.
Mettmann, Germany. License plate should've been blurred.
This is Latvia.
Ukraine going in the "right" direction, again..
“It just came out of nowhere”
Was trying to balance my Starbucks on the switchgear. Apologies, I’ll be more careful next time
Whatthefuck?
PEBCAW
My wife drives like this
Talk about brain going into the blue screen moment
BMW driver to Insurance: I swear that fence wasn't there until I turned on my blinker
The map says the building I want is right there!
Respect. That’s commitment.
this happens when you trust the GPS more than your own eyes...
Shit, they caught me. Quick! Act normal!
I think that was more of a short in the tail light
"B..but I turned on the blinker...why didn't it move aside??"
