I dontknow whether its camera angle, but those rear tyres look wide enough for a high performance car.

Hey, I think I saw those guys last year while I was in the Dominican Republic (truly a third world country)....gas was $2.25 a liter, so many were tripling up on tiny 2 stroke motorcycles.

Looks like the driver hit the brake & locked up the wheel almost immediately so she was just sitting on top of a non-rotating wheel. Pretty funny though....
