  1. Is this one of the BMW opt-in subscription extras?

  2. And obviously with all the lights turned off and no blinkers because that's the BMW style. If I had been in that car, every light of that car would be flashing and I'd be honking the horn while pulling the seatbelts tighter. The most insane part was that they were exiting the car while three cars were approaching the corner!

  3. A minimum, the dude getting out of the car would have had both of his legs crushed by the door if Misha had failed to avoid the collision. With modern cars, just sit in the car and keep the seatbelt tight if you cannot safely exit the area. And I fail to understand how they couldn't get the car to move downhill even with a broken tyre.

  4. Surpringinly many modern cars have such a wide A pillar that you have to keep peeking around the pillar all the time if you don't like driving blind.

  5. Did they explain why they didn't play the horn and flash the lights?

  6. Yes, you have to intentionally peak around the pillar to see if there's anything worth knowing. I hate it but I understand that even with high strength steel you have to make those pillars pretty thick to be able to contain both strong enough windshield pillar and one or more airbags. And sometimes even ventilation piping. I'd rather have a car without air vents in the pillar if I can get better visibility in return.
