Mustang Gone Wild

I think it is a Mustang, certainly drives like one. This is a screenshot from a neighbors security camera. The driver tried to drift around the corner and went into the yard crashing into the parked car.

The picture shows a distinct light behind the rear wheel. I haven't seen this sort of option or is it an aftermarket light?

There is a reflector back there.



It's easy to imagine a street light reflecting and causing the glare or some sort of kit to turn those into lights. Or maybe it's a light not a reflector.

Did they hit the parked car and then drive off?

Yes, they started at the T intersection in the upper right, tried to spin the tires and went into the yard. A horrible attempt to spin the tires. This happened on the night Nicholas came.

Mustangs should come with some driver's training. hahahah.

Mustang drivers doing burn outs reminds me of the videos that I see of bicycle riders jumping ramps while sitting on the seat of the bike. That never ends well.
