Amazingly bad driving.

You've go to be kidding, maybe a set up joke? I've seen my share of bad drivers and that's right up there!

That has to be a set up. The cars license plate is clearly visible & I'm sure that they can be located for hit & run. If thats not a set up..SO GLAD I don't live in Calgary!

I'm embarrassed to say this, but here in Alberta, we have (IMO) the worst drivers in North America. I've ridden and driven through many states and provinces and I always know I'm back home by the proportion of truly unskilled and dangerous drivers on the road.

That was painful to watch.
It's even more painful if it's real.

Thoughts came to mind:

Not the Ultimate Driving Experience
Alcohol was involved.
Driving by Braille

It looks real to me. I've seen drivers like that in parking lots, although that is an extreme example.

The problem seems to be that the car to the left of the BMW is too close and the car parked parallel to the curb, which doesn't actually block the BMW driver presents a challenge as to how much room is available aft.

I think that the collision with the parallel parked car probably caused the driver to panic and lose presence of mind.

Welcome to Calgary. Police tracked the driver down and gave them a $115 ticket instead of charging them with dangerous driving. Brutal
