Perhaps inspired by the Dukes of Hazzard, a Florida man jumped his Nissan Versa over a 20-foot-wide canal June 2019Warner Bros. Pictures A man in Lehigh Acres, Florida, broke his back after attempting to jump his vehicle across a canal, Dukes of Hazzard-style.According to NBC, 35-year-old Robert Foley mistook his Nissan Versa for an orange 1969 Dodge Charger and tried to jump over a 20-foot-wide canal.One witness, known to NBC only as Gerald, saw the whole thing happen.He was driving full speed, came across the canal, he landed right here on the bank as you can see, he told the news outlet.He hit this, hit the truck right here, he got out and started running. I went inside, I was scared.A short clip of the aftermath from NBC shows the destroyed vehicle sitting on the other side of the canal. The bank is still damaged where Foley smashed into it.You have to hand it to the guy, though, he did make it across to the other side, and he ran away despite having a broken back. Needless to say, dont try this at home.Foley has had his licence revoked since 2017, and now faces a hit and run charge as well as two DUI

YouTube moron films himself in Tesla on Autopilot with no one at the wheel
2018 Tesla Model 3Peter Bleakney In a truly stupid video recently posted to Instagram, YouTuber Alex Choi attempted to make himself look cool by sitting in the back seat of a semi-autonomous Tesla Model 3 with nobody behind the wheel. Choi posted the eight-second clip to his Instagram Stories, clearly showing himself taking a video from the back seat of the car as it self-navigated heavy traffic, a friend in the front passenger seat and the driver’s seat completely empty, just like the part of his brain where the common sense is supposed to be. Needless to say, if something were to go wrong with the system, or even if it were turned off suddenly – it deactivates when someone turns the wheel or touches the brakes – he would have been totally screwed, and likely would’ve hurt somebody else on the road. meanwhile, YouTuber and new #TeslaModel3 Performance owner, Alex Choi is posted this video to his Instagram story last night. Its probably the most reckless thing that hes done and thats saying something. pic.twitter.com/TK5zwgRohX Det Ansinn (@detansinn) June 4, 2019 This isn’t the first time Choi has done something stupid that endangers other people’s lives. A video was posted a while back with him making an extremely ill-timed merge in a Lamborghini that almost ended a motorcycle rider’s life. Honestly, if you’re going to do something for the gram, at least make it cool or interesting; this is just stupid, and doesn’t help the reputation of the Autopilot system. Once again, Tesla’s Autopilot system is not some stupid toy to be played with. It’s a driver assistance aid aimed at making driving more comfortable, so quit pretending it’s your own personal chauffeur. It isn’t. Tesla is also partly to blame for this kind of behavior, since the automaker still uses language like “full self-driving capability” to describe Autopilot’s advantages, when that’s something it really doesn’t
