This Mercedes SLK Driver Has Strange Ideas About Roadworthiness

The driver of this first-gen SLK was spotted in Barcelona driving with a wheel hanging off after what must have been a huge accident

In a way, we can’t help but admire the determination of this Mercedes SLK driver. That doesn’t make their actions any less stupid, but hey, credit where credit’s due, and all that.

After what must have been a pretty big accident that completely destroyed the front-right suspension, the driver carried on driving through Barcelona as though they still had four functioning wheels. Which as you can see in the video above, they really didn’t.

This Mercedes SLK Driver Has Strange Ideas About Roadworthiness

It’s not clear what happened here, but two likely options are that it’s either a drunk driver or that the car is stolen. Or perhaps there’s a third possibility we’re not thinking of.

Feel free to speculate in the comments…

I read the news earlier today, the driver was drunk and was positive on cocaine and weed. He crashed pretty hard against a bmw 1 series and then proceeded to drive 4 more kilometers as if nothing happened, until a police patrol stopped him. Besides having the wheel completely destroyed, the engine was also being scraped against the tarmac

It all starts in the month of May, 2018. A man by the name of Henry Goodman discovers his wife in the arms of another man in his own bed. This discovery spirals out of control until he calls for a divorce on the 26th of May.
fast forward to the 24th of June
Henry Goodman is attending a court hearing for settlements regarding his recent divorce.

On the other side of town, Phillip Barnsley hops in his daily ride for a trip to the shops. He is 57, and has owned this Peugeot 308 for 9 years now. He swerved out of his drive with utter disregard for oncoming traffic. The signature of a complete maniac.

For Peter Prince, lawyer and father of 4, it is too late for him to avoid Phillip in his madness. At the wheel of his SLK, he screams to his mistress through a headset as he plows into the wayward Peugeot.

Phillip drives off without exchanging insurance details. He assumes he’s bumped the kerb again. Silly Phillip.

Distraught, Peter looks for the closest tow shop to drag him and his damaged SLK to his appointment with his mistress. She said she would be wearing the leather bunny costume this visit, after all.

The contact he calls? Our very own Henry Goodman, of Budget Jerking. The closest tow shop.

Peter does, what a man’s gotta do.
