Damn. Riding the brakes instead of engine braking?

Well, you shouldn’t be engine braking if you’re going all out.
Then again, he shouldn’t be going all out on public roads.
Also, brakes don’t just suddenly catch fire, they start to fade first. This guy seems like he kept pushing it regardless. He’s lucky he didn’t crash into a tree at full speed.

As for extinguishers, I have two in my car lol

Yeah, that’s crazy… Can’t imagine ignoring brake fade (maybe since I’ve experienced brake loss on the track from boiled 660 fluid).

Now there’s another story to that:

^ Holy Shit! My new retirement plan.

Haha great movie

Far more plausible. If your brakes went on fire while driving you’d have already backed off from fade. Further you wouldn’t be parked on a 70 degree angle on an embankment… You’d be at the side of the road where your car would be engulfed and consumed. There’s absolutely zero sign of a fire happening on the actual road. The road would be black and covered in melted plastic if the fire happened where they parked it, and then the car ended up down the embankment.

The brake fire story is so the guy can defraud his insurer.

What model S4 is that?

Wow, that’s a new one lol. That second video is great.

What would the difference be as far as defrauding the insurer. I would think both cases insurance would cover the car.
A) you went off the road slightly and crashed - Your fault
B) car mysteriously had the brakes catch on fire, most likely because of EXTREME conditions - questionable if driver actions were at fault of freak of nature.

So I guess just the difference lies with “at fault” or not.
