Crash Tuesday [VIDEO]

A special "video" crash Tuesday today.  Enjoy!

Fire Truck + MINI COOPER = Never a good outcome!

"According to investigators, a fire crew heading to an emergency-medical call collided with a Mini-Cooper. We're told the fire truck did have its emergency lights turned on at the time."*

On a more somber note, this in from NorCal...

"The 19-year-old driver of a Mini Cooper who crashed into a mini-van last weekend, killing a Sonoma family of four, was arrested for drunken driving when he was 17, according to the CHP..."




Hopefully this is no one we know... (funny how they don't even try to fuzz out the plate number!)

Forza 3 MINI

This CGI'd Cooper S showed up on my radar this morning.



Ironically, I have a friend who's MINI looks very much like this rendering! Go figure!

Crash Tuesday (Racing Edition)

Road racing doesn't usually count for "Crash Tuesday", considering that there is always at least one crash per any auto race (which is partially why auto racing is such a popular spectator sport!). However, for this installment, I thought a nice compilation video would be appropriate! Enjoy!

Crash Tuesday [photo] [warning: blood and gore]

A staged photo*

 
*Before I get a ton of hate mail... this is apparently a staged photo from a UK program called "Hammer House of Horror".  Now that I you know it's fake, it's okay to say "whooooaaa!"
