    I think anyone who films themselves (or anything really) while driving should get their license permanently revoked

      The 2 things worse than drunk driving, being overly tired and distracted by your phone

        Maybe worse than buzzed driving. Overly tired people are more likely to crash in a ditch than going 110 and causing a head in collision.

        As someone who has rolled their car, I grabbed the keys from the ignition, the toll pass on the windshield and stepped out of the car to look for my phone.

        It’s a weird reflex but, like, gotta have my phone to call for help.

        It’s a valid concern. I’ve been on a long trip in winter, flew out of the road on ice, rolled over and back onto the wheels. Everything was fine, except I never found my phone which had the navigation map. Had to complete the trip navigating by my laptop with a usb modem. The windows were rolled up, but the phone apparently just poofed into nonexistence.

      That’s becasue it’s ** generated. Just look at the how she uses the steering wheel and how the car respondes. Also how the car flips and that she didn’t use the brakes at all.

        God, I hate this shit. I really don’t think it is. It’s called “losing control” for a reason. The car is no longer responding to the driver input as you would expect. The car rolls over, so it obviously slides sideways. That’s never a steering direction you can input. Is every car roll over AI generated?

    She wasn’t emotional. She was playing while driving.

    If your first instinct after a car crash is to react to your stream while still dangling upside down in your seat then you have a detrimental addiction.

      I’ve had my phone with navigation maps completely disappear after a 180° rollover with closed windows, while everything else remained intact. Never found it afterwards, had to complete the trip orienting by the laptop with a usb modem. Next time, I’m grabbing the phone even before the car starts rolling.

    This is exactly why you shouldn’t film a TikTok while driving

    ftfy - no real emotions to see here, except the ones when shit starts to go down.

    I dunno. If engaging content is your goal, this one had me hooked from beginning to end. I want to see more.

    Say what you will, but she steered into the slide like a boss!!! It wasn’t enough, but even F1 drivers spin-out sometimes.

      Okay counter steering, but in a fwd like that you also have to bury the gas to try and pull out of it. Which is counterintuitive. I usually change my driving-mind when racing but I’ve had a few oh shit moments on dirt where I kinda forgot and mid slide remember oh yeah, gas.

        idk, looked intentional, but panicked. she was even looking into it. I have 100% seen similar vids and the person just grips the wheel, or throws up their hands. at least an attempt was made.

        As for the precipitating factors, she’s a moron.

    She needed to swing the steering wheel a bit more. I bet that would prevent her from crashing /s
