BMW M3 Loses Control

Hopefully, my CT4 BW handles better than this :

Dang!!!

Anyone who know Fairfax County Parkway and Prince William Parkway knows those roads are crazy, and just shy of a death trap at times. Speed limit is 50 or 55 for the most part, and everyone drives somewhere between 40 and 80 on a regular basis.

Did he use a blinker?

Since it's a Beemer, I'd bet not...

Ahead of my CT5V Blackwing, I briefly owned a 2022 M4 Competition xDrive. It was an expensive experiment to see if I could be content in a BMW, which I quickly identified I could not. One night turning on to a ramp, I stabbed the throttle and the car reacted in a violent and unexpected manner. I reeled it in ok, but can't state enough how much more comfortable I am pushing in a RWD car, even w/ 668 HP. Cadillac has nailed the execution of the user selectable traction system. The M4 was great to launch in a straight line and insanely fast w AWD, but the handling is definitely not for me.

I wonder if the cops had to take a domestic battery report after the kids Dad planted his foot up the kids arse for being an idiot.

Father passed out drunk on the floor as usual after 1PM.

It would be slight safer because it would only be doing 116mph in the same situation.

Who in their right mind gives a 17 yr old a m3 that has excess of 450 hp. Probably is also tuned so probably 500 hp. If most of us had one of those, we would have been in serious trouble in our teenage yrs. Plain dumb…

IDK, I was 16 years old when I soloed a single engine aircraft and 17 when I got my private pilots license. And it was my Dad’s airplane. Probably not the smartest thing to do as a parent, but it did a lot for me at a young age to learn responsibility.

I think I hit my peak at around 25 and declined from there.
