Angel Eyes: BMW 3-Series Coupe Tumbles Down Mountain, Both Passengers Make it Out Alive


A member of the dedicated BMW forum 1Addicts has posted these photos of the aftermath of a creepy accident that occurred somewhere on the Angeles Crest Highway in California.

According to forum member and driver of the 3-Series Coupe "M3KILL3R", the incident happened when in order to avoid some animals on the road, he panicked, swerved, hit the brakes and eventually lost control of the car which went flying straight off the edge of a cliff tumbling down the mountain.

Amazingly, he and his female passenger made it out alive with some minor injuries. Here's how "M3KILL3R" described the incident:


"Was bout 2 am on a saturday night jan.2nd, picked up a female friend who lives on angeles crest street and we headed up angeles crest mountain... Was taking her to a view spot for, u know...neways.

At mile marker 30.65, no speeding no nothing, max i went was 35mph.came up to a pretty bad ass turn...the second i turned i saw 3 animals of some sort kicking it on the road. I panicked, swirved, hit the brakes, hit dirt road which didnt help me from stopping.

Flew straight off the ledge... Flips+turns+tree+flips+turns+flips and landed on 3 rocks 426 feet down the mountain...both of us are okay...walked out clean...i just have a fractured collar bone and my whole left side is killing me like crazy. The female is perfectly fine, just a few cuts n bruises."

VIDEO: Hotel Valet Drivers Abuse Guests' Cars, Post Films on Youtube


Employees from a valet company are being Accused of ABUSING guests' cars at the Hyatt Hotel in downtown St. Louis. A person who goes by the alias "election Underground" posted dozens of Videos on Youtube that show valet drivers doing burn outs, donuts and numerous other antics with all sorts of cars ranging from a Ford Focus to a Porsche 911 and a Maserati Coupe.

A report from FOX2 says that the Hyatt hotel's general manager, confirmed that the event did indeed take place in the hotel's garage. The manager added that he had fired the valet company, which has been identified as AAA Parking, from Atlanta, Georgia, before he even knew of the Videos on Youtube.

The valet company issued an official statement saying that it did not find any evidence on the videos that could link its staff to the events.

"AAA Parking has carefully reviewed the video and based upon the information provided, there is nothing to indicate that the actions displayed were AAA Parking employees, "the company said." However, we are conducting our own internal investigation. "

Well, whoever is two blame, one thing is for certain: the valet drivers responsible are total -you may insert your word of choice here-...

We don't have all the details, but it is said that the driver of the car miraculously survived the crash, but not without serious injuries, while the female passenger escaped unhurt.

Double Whammy: DUI Driver Smashes Into Another DUI's Crashed Car [Updated with New Video]


Two separate accidents that occurred in downtown Los Angeles today lead to the arrest of two people on suspicion of DUI (driving under the influence). This strange incident started when a female driver in a Lexus IS, who was later arrested for DUI, crashed with another car that allegedly drove off after the accident. A few minutes later, and while a cameraman was filming the incident, a third car with three people inside slammed into the Lexus!

According to the reports, the rear seat passenger in the white car that hit the Lexus was taken to the hospital for minor injuries, while the driver was apprehended by the boys-in-blue for driving under the influence. Luckily, no one was in the Lexus when the second accident occurred.
