Video of the Week: Worst carwash exit ever

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — High-speed turns can result in terrible accidents.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — High-speed turns are notoriously tricky to make, not to mention dangerous.

A sharp turn out of a tunnel carwash is not out of the ordinary, nor should there be any high speeds involved.

This week’s video, featured on carbuzz.com, is perhaps one of the worst carwash exits ever and shows a car exiting a tunnel wash and failing to make the sharp turn out to the street.

The car flips over the retaining wall off the street and crashes into a fire hydrant, flooding the area.

Like Carbuzz, we sincerely hope no one was hurt.
