It is too painful to see these kind of pictures. Young kids need to learn to be responsible and learn how to drive especially before get into the FD, looks like he lost control and fish tailed and hit the pole or he was trying to do some crazy drift style driving.... Sad to see another FD goes down by an irresponsible driver.

I went to the scene of the accident and my buddy (other FD owner) and I thought he might have been trying to drift the car

Just as I thought, it sure looks he was trying to some kind of drifting and lose control of the car...it still hurts my eye and see a beautiful FD went down the drain.

While we are pulling assumptions out of our *** here....



I think he was running away from a flying saucer that was chasing him on the freeway. The damage isn't from telephone pole, it's where the giant **** probe missed it's target.

Irresponsible driver for sure. Don't forget the parents for allowing someone that young to get into a car like this. Maybe it's hereditary

Hey I'm only 18 and I haven't pulled one of those stunts. I think drifting is kind of stupid though. IMO, street racing is pretty damn risky, but drifting on the street takes it to a whole new level of stupidity.
