No one enjoys being stuck behind a row of slow-moving traffic that’s putzing along well below the posted speed limit. It’s annoying and a hassle, yes, but it isn’t exactly safe passing several cars against traffic either, which is what one Chevy Corvette C8 driver recently discovered in California. The driver attempted to pass several vehicles at once, but the lead Toyota had other plans.
According to the California Highway Patrol Facebook post about the incident, the Corvette driver was attempting to pass three slower-moving vehicles while the lead Toyota Pickup was slowing to perform a left-hand turn into a parking lot. The Corvette driver failed to notice the Toyota driver, who turned in front of the Corvette, and the two collided. The Corvette, which police alleged was traveling “at a high rate of speed,” slammed into the driver’s side of the Toyota, flipping the pickup onto its roof.
