A cornball in a BMW tried threading the gap between two cars, taking a 75 exit at a high rate of speed, and ended up losing control and crashing.
Dallas-area driver and Redditor /u/RiorDanny shared headshaking dashcam footage as he exited the 75 from earlier in April (Apr 2, 2026) to the /r/IdiotsInCars subreddit showing an extreme speeder taking this exit way too fast, between two cars, no less, and ending up crashing as a result.
Check out the rear dashcam footage below with the original Reddit thread linked here.
The incident happened on US-75 as OP and other drivers took Exit 3 onto Mockingbird Ln/SMU Blvd (Exact location on Google Maps linked here.)
As the rear POV shows, OP is going northbound on the 75 towards Exit #3 onto the aforementioned streets.
Suddenly, a driver in a dark colored BMW sedan can be seen approaching OP’s rear at a high rate of speed.
In front of OP and to his right is another driver.
The driver in the BMW tries to squeeze between OP and the car in front of him, but, after running over some water and ultimately losing traction, the BMW loses control, tries to correct, but ends up crashing into the side of the exit instead.
Traffic behind slows to avoid crashing into them.
“Also, I didn’t stop initially because I didn’t want to clog the ramp, but I pulled a U-turn to make sure they were safe. The Edgar was untouched, but his BMW was…,” OP clarified in the comments.
“I’ll never understand the reasoning for driving like this. You’re never getting to your destination that much faster where this is worth it,” one of the top comments from /u/VisualizeWhirledPees reads.
“Sometimes the trash takes itself out,” /u/SomethingIWontRegret aptly put it.
In Texas, there’s no flat fine for blasting an off-ramp at 85 MPH and crashing, but you’re typically looking at $500–$1,000+ once speeding, failure to control speed, and fees stack up. Because of the speed and the wreck, it can easily get bumped to reckless driving, which adds a fine and even possible jail time. Bottom line: this isn’t a basic ticket—it escalates fast and gets expensive.
