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!

A minivan happened, that’s what happened
Atleast the car died clean.
Ladies and gentlemen, i present to you… understeer
When you forgot to get underneath
Reminds me of GTA Chinatown on the Nintendo DS, when the car you drove catched fire and you hit a fire hydrant ASAP to stop the car from exploding…
Wasn’t there, a decent time ago, an issue with Toyotas getting thier accelerator stuck…
The tires were wet, they tried to speed out of there. They understeered, fell off the crest, hit a fire hydrant, flipped over. The end
As a carwash employee I have to say almost all accidents happen because customers did something we did not expect, or just failed completely.
Like driving into the carwash too fast, or braking while in it.
Or going in with a broken sidemirror or a damaged bumper.
