Can You Work Out How The Hell This Disastrous Car Wash Crash Happened?

CCTV footage shows the moment a driver completely messed up while exiting a car wash, crashing over a drop-off and flipping onto a fire hydrant

A driver in Montana turned the simple act of exiting a car wash into a disastrous crash. The thing is, we can’t work out how they managed it - was it pedal confusion, did they genuinely think they could make the turn using that amount of steering lock, or something else?

We’re pretty baffled, so give us your theories below!

I assume the car was locked his rear rear wheels so during the wash it wouldn’t destroy the car wash, the driver accelerated, it didn’t work so he tried harder, and then when the car wash released the car it decided to fly.

To me it almost looks like the front wheels are slipping and causing understeer, and the driver wasn’t paying enough attention to react.

Either it was panic gas or electrical failure due water getting somewhere it should have not gotten in to…
