Are you KIDDING me?! That moron driving the droptop bug would have been prosecuted for three vehicular honmicides.....except that his brains would have been smeared on the pavement! Talk about dodging a bullet? They dodged four of them.

Lesson: No bugs or 2002's should be allowed on the 'ring

That was an amazing save by the guy on the cycle. The bug convertible is just nuts.

Hilarious. Not least the sense of safety - or lack there of.

Letīs go for spin on the Ring. Never mind the seatbelt! If the door swings open Iīll just fall right out of the vehicle. Charming.
