Not really fresh news (it occurred in April), but I don't remember having seen it in the forum: a bulldozer fight in China.

Warning, the sound is very badly recorded and really loud.

I read about that by coincidence in an old newspaper lying around at the papery where I work.

Citroën BX found in NY streets :

(with one error: the suspension is the same for both front & rear, they say the front is conventional)



"Carspotting in Chelsea- Live!"

I still can't help but think of this song:

Trucks vs low bridge
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzkWTcDZFH0

The bridge even has its own website http://11foot8.com/

As told in the website's FAQ, many signs and measures have been taken to try to stop the crashes but still...

i'm not a truck driver but..aren't they suppose to know their vehicle's height ? :ohwell:

That bridge is well known indeed, I already saw videos/pics of it posted around here.

A good solution (but not easy to install anywhere) :

Too much cheap, I'd say. It's already rusting?

Volkswagen graveyard in the Belgian woods

https://youtu.be/48w9nM9vzMo

Lots of Beetles and Buses. Some old 4x4s. Autoweek did a story on the video and theorized that the cars were probably abandoned about 20 years ago.

One of the "Deehatsus" has a pair of stickers on the windscreen in support of agriculture. I think they're from around 2000, when farmers went on various demonstrations around Belgium. But looking at the cars themselves, it's clear this not a car graveyard from the olden days when Beetles were part of the daily traffic. This is only from 15-20 years ago, when Beetles were already in the hands of enthousiasts (collectors, customizers, autocrossers). IMHO, it's really surprsising to see a place like this already abandoned and explored as if it was some ancient relic.

In Holland backward-races with the Vaiomatic-DAF-cars (they can drive backwards as fast as forward) were very popular, annoyingly still nowadays as it seems - one video is from 2013.

Stupidly destroying their own automobile heritage. I guess a problem that will solve itself.

I was also a little surprised that these races still exist; are these cars still so common? Or will they soon be extinct?

This video reminds me of a Ford Mustang cutting a bunch of other vehicles on a boulevard . I wasn't one of the cut ones but i saw him changing lanes again and again right in front of other drivers.... then he made it to a Dodge Charger which had to brake a little bit hard to avoid the collision as the light turned red........ yeah, you all guessed it, the Charger was an unmarked police car....

Remember, if you want to do an illegal move on the road, check out for the cars with the lights on top first.. :grin:

:grin: It remembers me: while driving in France, a sportscar pass us at a very high speed, then shortly afterwards I slow down to let pass a police car coming out of its hideout, which pursuits the speeding car (I do not remember which car model it was, but the acceleration was impressive). A little further we find both stopped on the site of the road. Unfortunately my dashcam was off at that moment :ohwell:
