My first thought was 'what a weird thing to have those little brick roadside posts'. I guess in that neighborhood you want something to keep Junior out of the living room.

And I thought a J-turn was going forwards and doing a fast 180 degree turnaround - what they taught for evasive driving, with parking brake lockup of rears and fishtail around (anybody else ever 'tray' their FWD?).

It wasn't his fault.

Tire pressures were 2psi off.

Running over the curb gave him that extra lift. Douchy thing to do, as I'm sure there is nothing that pressing to be attempting a J turn in a middle of a residential area.

Sad thing, I bet insurance is covering the loss. Pretty much passing the costs of his individual stupidity on to all of us.

Clearly you've never been asked to look after your kids.

Hmmm since I don't have any...wait...no that was a false alarm...I'm good.

Even being asked to look after kids should not justify doing something stupid in a residential neighbourhood where most likely there are kids out playing.

Also, I like the submachine gun (or look alike) that also popped out.

Can only imagine the conversation with his insurance co.

RRover: uhhhh...so yeah I was in a single vehicle accident
Insurance:Sorry to hear that, please tell me what happened.
RRover: I tried to pull a J turn, hit a curb, went airborne, rolled once and landed straight up again. Oh and my speakers and gun fell out of the back, so need to claim those as well. I can send you the YouTube video...
Insurance:So...we're going to go ahead and deny your claim and cancel your insurance...dumbass.
