Brake Failure In Scotland Results In Astounding Crash

News out of Dundee, Scotland last week in relation to a spectacular and fortunately benign brake-related crash in Scotland’s historic Hilltown Village. Two gentlemen riding in a blue Rover were said to be flying down one of the many hills in Hilltown while simultaneously driving on the wrong side of the road when their brakes failed. According to reports by bystanders, the driver was “wrestling” with his steering wheel and it appeared that he was almost aiming for a certain place to crash. Luckily enough, both passengers inside the vehicle emerged with little scrapes and bruises, proving to be an absolute miracle based on the severity of the crash.

The vehicle, on the other hand, had to be chopped and screwed in order to retrieve both passengers from the bowels of the vehicle. The car is pictured to the right giving a chilling depiction of the harshness of the accident and the dangers of brake failure. These two people are lucky to be alive after an accident as malicious as that and hopefully have learned a valuable lesson about regularly maintaining your brakes and rotors.
