Wonder how good their insurance is?
It looks like a silly mistake but just before it is a very deceptive, off-camber kink over a blind crest. A few others made similar mistakes but gave up on trying to pull it back in time for the...
Someone getting it wrong at the Ben Nevis hillclimb last weekend... (there actually wasn't too much damage and he had it fixed up and back out having another go the next day)
...
Yip you're onto it, got told later that there was a cut water line. They pulled it out easy enough with a smaller tractor that wasn't in the wet patch.
Well that obviously didn't go according to plan!
Saw this one this week, had to have a (sympathetic) laugh at the bloke finding what looked to be the only wet patch in a rather large paddock.

Yip, fast approach with a right kink just before going hard left at intersection. Mr Subaru braked about a mile too late and arrived way too hot, not sure if he went through the fence deliberately...
Who said Subarus are idiot-proof? :ORLY:

I guess that takes about the same intelligence level as trying to cut your own head off with a sheet of corrugated iron.
Last time I asked google maps to navigate anywhere rural (I knew how to get there but wanted to know how far it was) it tried to send me on a 30km+ detour to avoid 5km of gravel road!
More rally carnage:

No mention of closing the track on DOC website. Think they were getting grumpy about people going off the track and ripping it up around the historic areas where they're not supposed to be driving,...
Quite a popular 4wd trip from Arrowtown, lots of river crossings.
Did they put that snorkel on it themselves? Or did someone else put it on to get the car out again.
They do hang good slides if you're committed... back it in and power out! :D
Have to be trying pretty hard to throw a Subaru off a gravel road, they're about as forgiving as a car can get!
A few people had oops moments in the snow and ice at the Catlins rally yesterday...

Probably texting then! Or playing that stupid game I keep hearing about.
Was it wild raging understeer, or a panic and overcorrect?
