Ford Mustang Crashes While Leaving Car Show

By -

Like peanut butter and jelly, a car show and a Mustang crash just go together.

For someone in Austin, Texas, a V6 mustang is just far too much to handle. Setting the scene is familiar: while leaving a car show, a Mustang driver manages to lose it in dry conditions. Not having learned from the first spin-out, the driver manages to over-correct a second time while trying to get pointed in the right direction. The absurd frequency of these crashes is quite embarrassing, but we’re placing full blame on the driver for this one.

It’s somewhat easy to recuse the V6 Mustang from the label of being a menace on the road, but drivers such as the one seen here prove otherwise. As enthusiasts, owners and drivers of Mustangs, we really need to make a more concerted effort to keep cool behind the wheel. We fear one of these videos is soon going to end very poorly.

There is a benefit to these crashes. For those interested in their own 15 minutes of fame, it seems like standing outside of a car show is a great way to get hits on your YouTube, Instagram and other social media sites. Your chances of catching something viral are quite high these days, but if you’re the one behind the camera, just make sure to stand in a safe place.
