Car sharing drivers have developed quite a bad reputation for their atrocious driving over the years. 

If you're wondering how bad they are right now, look no further.

Here's a video that will make you facepalm yourself:

What Happened?

After failing to come to a complete stop at a stop-line, a GetGo Mazda 3 abruptly performed an e-brake to avoid t-boning a taxi. 

For some reason (most likely to give the Mazda 3 driver a death stare), the taxi stopped just in front of the Mazda 3.

At this point, the Mazda 3 somehow gently rolls forward and collides with the side of the taxi.

I am not sure about you, but this deserves a good facepalm moment.

This incident serves as a prime example of the poor driving skills that the majority of car sharing drivers possess.

Personally, I tend to avoid being around these cars.

The taxi driver clever. He waited for his 2nd chances to get hit again. And to claim for free holiday. 🥳

I think the driver is not familiar with the car's stop/start system. Mazda calls it what? istop? The driver brake hard initially which deactivated the engine, thought engine stalled and let go of the brakes only to have the engine kick back on and rolled forward.

Either driver is a noob or too long never drive. Dunno how the system work. First time user.

That's another possibility!

I think that driver might have mistakenly thought that when i-stop engaged means the car also engaged auto brake-hold at the same time but sadly this model doesn't have auto brake-hold since it does not have EPB.

Exactly my thoughts. The cabbie knew full well what he was doing. 😂

  • Godzilla Minus One: Surprisingly emotional and poignant

    When one thinks of Godzilla movies, one imagines an oversized amphibious dinosaur generating a terrifying heat ray from its mouth and fighting with other oversized monsters. Meh, nothing special, right? Wrong. Here’s why Godzilla Minus One should be an action movie you should definitely catch. In this version, the timeless clash between monster and man is once again set against the tumultuous backdrop of post-war Japan. But, unlike typical action films that dive headfirst into destruction a

    Ready? Steady? Slow!

    Have you ever watched on of those baby crawling races? They are hilarious. I watch a lot of NBA, and sometimes they have these races as a halftime entertainment. And its hilarious because unlike most athletic races, there's an inherent unpredictability and chaos to these things. They get distracted, they get bored, they get tired. Babies doing baby things, you know.  Well, England thinks it can one-up the absurdity of racing: Introducing to you, Snail Racing.  It seems almost

    I have a new favourite game - Dave the Diver!

    Nowadays I think many people have a Nintendo Switch, considering how it is often given away as a free gift when you sign up for credit cards,etc. Instead of just playing Mario Kart, Overcooked and Pokemon, I have another game to introduce to you all! The game is Dave the Diver. This game has completely captivated me with its delightful blend of adventure and relaxation. From the moment I dove into its vibrant underwater world, I was hooked. The gameplay mechanics strike that perfect b

    5 ways the Polestar 2 Core Edition proves less can be more

    With a less-is-more approach, the Polestar 2 Core Edition offers a more value-for-money entry into the Swedish brand.  What first comes to mind when you think of Sweden? IKEA, and probably ABBA. But there's plenty more that has come out of Sweden besides flat-pack furniture, meatballs and impossibly-catchy pop songs. Founded as a standalone brand just eight years ago and headquartered in Torslanda, Sweden, Polestar is a design-forward electric performance brand that wants to put its Sc
