Is it just me or does that rear tyre look like it has no tread?

So I had a friend recently pass away from a minor car accident. The air bags never deployed. My friends family tried sueing the car company for airbag failure.
Turns out he wasn't wearing his seatbelt. When you don't wear your seatbelt, your airbags don't deploy. Tldr:WEAR YOUR FING SEATBELT!!

This is really sad. We all have to remember that somewhere this kid has a mother (and father) who are probably going through absolute hell right now. So, though I don't want to pile on, I just totally fail to understand the not wearing the seat belt thing. Teach your kids. People walk away from far worse.

I drove my next car (an '81 VW Scirocco) much more carefully at first (in my early 20's), then youth & the speed-generated adrenaline kicked in again and the tickets came. I too was young and dumb at one time, luckily I survived my youth. Unfortunately this gentleman wasn't as lucky. RIP.

When did 24 years old become a kid anyway? It's not like he was 16. This man could have 8 years driving experience. |

The scene in NY (Brooklyn especially) has gotten out of control. Mexico literally turned in to speedway.
I LOVE the thrill of driving these cars, but I absolutely HATE seeing a brand new RS3/M/AMG doing a 0-60 pull on a Brooklyn neighborhood street. |

It seems like the tire shaved off by something, it's showing the treads. So I don't think anybody would drive it in this condition let alone speed in it...

Yes, I just saw that on the News4 NY just a night or 2 ago. Complaints on drag racing keeping neighbors up. Very unsafe practice. Go to the track for that silliness. Spirited driving on a twisty road is one thing, this is at another level.

That is why you never give kids cars like this unless they have had proper vehicle control training! My son will be driving in 6 years and he will at best get a 330ix as his first car.

Except they missed the part where driving a car is not a constitutional right. Can'tt follow the rules, don't drive a car. Simple.

For all we know "speeding" could have been driving 55 on a 45, which we all due here. Just because it's an M5 and a 24-year old we assume he was doing 110 on a 45. Let's stop pretending we have never speed on our BMWs and we holier than thou.
This looks to be poor driving conditions and lack of maintenance on the car. Traction on those tires is non existent. I was just 18 when I bought my first BMW and I remember everyone always assuming I was the stupid kid speeding on daddy's BMW. May God bless and give this family support during these difficult times.
