Car slid and then flipped off the side of a mountain
There is a point, you can tell exactly where he thought his time was up.

As I watched the video for the very first time, I knew the tunnel darkness to outside brightness was going to be his doom. As racers, we look ahead, WAY ahead. The tunnel prevented that, and then the sunlight blinded him. Stupid is as stupid does.
"Situation Awareness" my ass. |

Maybe, just maybe, he should've done that stretch of road a few times before he went total dumbass. Yeah, he got lucky!

I still don't understand why he freaked out like he did instead of just slowing down for the curve that he was in no danger of going off the right side of.

The tunnels:
The road (approximate location of the tunnels marked with the red arrow): A very poor assumption. Really not a lot of straight sections on that road. |

His screams of "oh no" are actually pretty scary, they are the sounds of a man who is convinced his life is about to end.

Sadly, it's guys like him why more and more auto makers are making it close, to nearly impossible to turn everything off. I for one, and I know you for another, and many others on this site, can drive WAY beyond the limits of the software. The nannies truly cost me time and enjoyment. I get reminded of this monthly at our school when I drive so many students' cars. BMW and Mercedes have become some of the biggest culprits.
