Idiot + Powerful BMW = Crash
Several online BMW discussion forums were abuzz today with the story of a police chase involving a BMW E90 3-Series. It's not every day you see a brand new Bimmer in a chase with law enforcement, nor do you often see one get wrecked. But that's what happened in this chase, which covered many of the major highways in Houston, Texas. For hours, the BMW out-maneuvered and overpowered the police cars. The chase ended when the E90 driver went the wrong way on a one-way on-ramp and slammed into a car. A woman who was in the Chrysler sedan that got hit jumped out to pounded on the E90 driver's window, obviously more than a little ticked that this maniac had just crashed into the car that was carrying her baby. Both the woman and her child were taken to hospital for observation, while the person driving the Chrysler was taken away on a stretcher. The driver of the Bimmer surrendered, apparently having suffered no major injuries. A new, longer video from CNN can be seen after the jump…

I bet the hazards light come on automatically in these BMW if the airbags been deployed. At least they should, it seems like a good idea to help warn oncoming traffic.

That white truck that was trying to stop the BMW.. he had a good chance to just ram the BMW and potentially end the chase. If he rammed the BMW would the damage have to go through his insurance? I'm thinking yes, but at one point in the video he stopped maybe 2 feet from the BMW.. could of avoided the end accident.

I wanted to see the mother go postal on the guy. That would have been truly funny.
Did you notice the mother was frantically trying to open the door she didnt even see the cops pull the baby out the other side. Then she didnt even go get the baby - she just leaned on the guardrail... I would like to think that I could keep it together a little better than that as a parent.
