Raw video: Street racing ends in fiery crash on Texas highway

- One person was arrested after police said two cars appeared to be racing on Sam Rayburn Tollway in Lewisville on Wednesday night. Video from @JuniorWash12 on Twitter.
The Texas Department of Public Safety said the crash happened just after 9:30 p.m. Wednesday on the southbound lanes of Sam Rayburn Tollway near Standridge Drive.
DPS said a Ford Mustang and a 2016 Chevrolet Corvette were suspected to be racing in the southbound lanes when the Mustang allegedly rear-ended a 2018 Hyundai Elantra that was not involved in the racing.
The impact from the collision caused the driver of the Mustang to veer into the Corvette's lane, officials said, causing another collision. The driver of the Corvette then veered into the median and rolled over.
Been a car guy all 39 years of my life. Enjoy racing and all things to do with cars. These types of "car guys" ruin it for everyone else. No one has the right to endanger other motorists lives like this. They both showed a complete disregard for anyones safety including their own. I hope the innocent victim was ok and sued the britches off of them.
I'm the same kind of guy, only I'm 63 yrs old. I took advanced Offensive Driver Training, which is another way of saying; high speed evasion and pursuit Driver Training. I agree with your sentiments 100%.
It was driving and riding on track that taught me not to race on the street. Well, that and the fact that in Texas today if 'racing' and anyone in either car or any innocent bystander is injured or killed it is a felony for *Both* drivers. A former employee is in prison today for this very thing.
dont tell me your a car guy and have never been in a street race.
@@A2J_Tim Many times as a youngster. As I said, it was only after getting formal training on track that I really understood how to handle a car or bike at speed. Once I started climbing that hill I realized that "the other guy" on the street most likely didn't have any more skill than I did back at 18.
On track I know that other guy has some skill, has had his car checked in tech, and most of all that there are no random civilians wandering onto the track. In this video the Mustang runs squarely into the back of a car going the speed limit in the slow lane of a 4 lane freeway w/o any effective attempt to avoid. The Chevy driver didn't make an obvious move to avoid the trap he was entering. both were low-skill drivers. "The other guy" can wreck you life.
@@Miata822 I agree with what you said about these guys being dumb, they didnt do their pull in a space where their was ample room. Most car guys that I Associate with will do pulls out on the highway, but we pick a dead highway where their is no traffic. My guess is these guys are brand new at owning higher hp cars and dont respect the power.
Found the Story, per Fox 4 KDFW and 5NBCDFW:
The Mustang driver was 27 year old Jordan Brown, was intoxicated and fled on foot after the crash. (He was later apprehended)
The Corvette's driver (43 year old David Ciske) and passenger (30 year old Dustin Smith) were both taken to a hospital, with the passenger in critical condition (it rolled over the median)
The Hyundai driver who was hit sustained minor injuries and was treated and released at the scene
Thanks for the heads up. At least the Hyundai driver was not that seriously hurt. ❤
Hyundai for the win.
How did Anyone survive that!?
@@mmark300I survived Front end accidents twice, with a neck injury and the second one left me with lower back pain that comes and go. The idiot pulled out onto the main roadway from a Driveway, blocking my lane causing me to come to a screeching stop while plowing into the Left side of his car Front Fender and his car was disabled blocking the road. My insurance company found me at no fault, cause I was on the main road and didn't caused the accident. My 2010 Corolla was totaled, no Airbags was inflated. But I now suffer with lower back pain on and off. When someone gets better after a car accident, there's long-term pain that will stay with them for the rest of their life.
Yeeeeah, Hyundai! 😃

You endanger the public anytime you drive your vehicle. Lmfao..
Do you also deserve 10 years in a federal prison? Yes, yes you do.
Ah yes, also going forward I think automatic 10 year federal prison sentences for anyone owning a high engine capacity car, and background checks for all the rest. Actually, theres not even a direct constitutional protection so maybe even an outright vehicle ban - if it saves just 1 life.
If you ever see an accident like this and you stop to help, help the innocent bystanders first.
And yet the wallets of the racers, keep the cash and give it to the victims
The guy who filmed it and apparently didn't stop to help would face prison time in many European countries. You are not obliged to endanger you life to help others but you are obliged to stop, call the 212 (911) and see what you can do (at least use your obligatory fire extinguisher if necessary).

All this does is justify our insurance companies raising the rates on the rest of us. I hope both racers owned their automobiles outright and that their insurance company refuses to pay damages because they were committing a crime when the accident occurred.
Street racing is a felony. Insurance policies exclude coverage if the vehicle us being used during the commission of a crime.
@@ElCid70you sure about that?
No insurance will pay a dime to someone racing like this. Liabilities will be covered, but the insurance will try every thing to get the money back from it's customer.
You dumb?
@@PeterAngles-jq7gr I wasn’t sure about that either so I asked my dad, who was a Farmers Insurance auto claims regional manager for 35 years.
He said the liability portion of the policy would be honored and paid out, but the property damage of the vehicle would indeed be denied due to the damage resulting from felony criminal activity.
He also said it’s pretty standard policy procedure across all carriers, but if a person is unsure about it, that it should be clearly stated in the policy’s declarations page.
I hope the car that got hit everyone is ok. My prayers for the family
Those MFRS playing F&F. Life sentence should be applied to them.
The dashcam driver was going 83, so those 2 morons were going over 100. Why was only 1 person arrested?
only one probably lived
@@wiechmanoutdoors That’s unfortunate.
I suspect in the end we're going to find out the Dashcam driver was part of it. 83 in a 70 zone? And just happened to be there at the exact right time with the camera on?? Naaa, he was filming this.
I like how after the cars crash, the brake lights in the yellow mustang light up before he hits the median. Too late for caution now, dude! 🤣
@@jayeasley2050 Ever hear of a dash cam?
This is why they build drag strips. Keep it off the streets, people. I hope everyone is ok.
Houston raceway was shut down and is getting turned into some depot. More tracks state and nationwide are also shutting down too. Don’t be surprised if this grows more. Although I will say that these were just plain irresponsible fools
@@L30GH05TDUD3 yeah, it's a shame more and more drag strips are going under. Though I did see that one just went up somewhere that was really short. Took up MUCH less space than even an 1/8 mile track. Don't remember where that is though...
yeah but...most drag strips are closed at 2 am after the bars close.
@@L30GH05TDUD3not really an excuse tbh. There’s other tracks and there’s back roads.
You got to love it, they were in the far right lane where they should have been with lights on and then some idiot hits them when you could see them just as plain as day.
lol in australia it's the other way around for lanes (keep left unless over taking) so when i started reading this at first i thought you were trying to blame the innocent car for being in the right lane when they shouldnt have haha
@@antman8845okay but this is America bud
@@antman8845 How about we call it the further most travel lane and then call the other lane the "passing lane" and "middle lane" like it is. Just like when we talk about left and right side of the car from the perspective of the driver instead of "drivers side" and "passengers side".
Because that’s not the terminology we use here, mate.

You’re angry at your father, not us. Keep it on the track kids.
They weren’t kids, they were adults in their 40s.
The Pony boy was winning I guess he can brag about that while sitting in jail.
He's dead
He hit that car like there was no car in front of him. Dumb and blind is a bad combination in racing. If you’re gonna race at night time I would use the high beam at least so that you can see what’s in front of you. Traveling at over 120mph in low beam headlights is asking for a disaster to happen. I hope everyone is ok especially the innocent bystander.
Weight of the car shifts when you accelerate. In extreme cases the weight shift can lift the front of the car and the rear end compresses causing the driver to have a very limited view of the road in front. The driver was probably only seeing the sky if he was lounging back in his seat like many idiots do.
The tail lights of the innocent car were clearly visible, don't even need your headlights on to see those! This idiot was racing while looking at the other car!
at this rate it's no longer just a meme; Mustang owners CANNOT be trusted
*Not one single second of evasive maneuvering or braking was even attempted by either vehicle to even somewhat or slightly try to avoid or mitigate what happened. That's insane. Those were either inexperienced kids or they were completely drink/high.*
I think they were ‘drink’ sir, May I have another?
I see that the "stupid people playing stupid games, winning stupid prizes" is still going strong. 😐🤦
It’s DISGUSTING that even ONE of them LIVED!
Smh hope the people in the exit lane are ok
The fact it took the camera car awhile to catch up even though the other cars were going sideways.
Camera car driver obviously braked hard upon seeing the crash. Also be aware that speed readout on dashcam is GPS and lags by a couple seconds.
Dude....
Theres a car in front of you.
As a young car enthusiast, I understand the urge to sometimes race on the freeway …. that being said, if you’re gonna go fast or do anything dumb? MAKE SURE THE HIGHWAY IS EMPTY. People who race in traffic like this give car enthusiasts a bad name. Even better? Race on a closed course.

"I live my life a quarter mile at a time..."
Which ones? There isn't any street racing movies in the last 10-15 years that I can think of.
No, they're not. Before racing movies existed men raced their cars. Certain personalities and people with certain upbringings will always want to race.
@@bufficliff8978 that's why I'm asking what street racing movies are we talking about? I seriously don't know of any that have been made in the last 10-15 years.
Plus dudes have been street racing since the prohibition days and street racing was really popular in the 60's-70's.
I actually like how the comment section isnt actually defending the racers, but rather praying for the innocent person AND even wishing for the racers not to have made it out alive.
I wouldn't say wishing death upon people is a very humane thing to do. But, just because I said this, the same tough guys doing that are going to come in here and wish death upon me too :/
I hope they live to deal with the debt and prison time

What exactly makes you think the driver has a license? You don't need a license to drive a car. Driving without a license is not any more illegal than drag racing on the highway or speeding like they were.

If “build back better” was a highway!
There was an accident in Poland recently with BMW going over 300km/h and crashing similarly from behind into another car on highway. The car caught fire and a family burned alive. So lucky that the tank didn't break in this case
Until there are real and painful penalties for this stuff it won't stop. Jail time and no plea bargaining on first offenses
They should never be allowed to drive again for something like this
Lock them both up because they both were involved in an act that became criminal as soon as the Hyundai was rear ended. 🤬
I seriously hope those racers werent able to walk away from that. Maybe its an unpopular opinion, but there's definitely a percentage of the population that the rest of us would be better off without, and these idiots are a prime example. If you're willing to make a deliberate decision that other peoples lives dont matter, then yours shouldn't matter either.
That happened to me a few years ago climbing hill 35 ton truck about 40 was hit by suv at 100 and I definitely felt it
Next time you consider tinting your tail lights, consider this.
Imagine just driving along and get smacked from behind. I hope everyone is ok.

Drives mustang + high speed = DANGER
Having money to buy a fast car vs having money and knowing how to drive a fast car😅
The yellow car should've immediately swerved left to allow the other car to pass that slow-moving car.
But he deliberately stayed in his lane and boxed his opponent in. I could just imagine his gloating when his rival rear-ended that slow car !
I seriously doubt the Vette knew the other driver wasn't going to take the necessary actions to not slam into that Hyundai. You can't rely on another driver getting out of your way.
So true. The Corvette driver made no effort to give room. besides the horrible crash, that was the first thing i noticed. Just like merging onto the freeway. All cars have a responsibility to make room when possible. Luckily nobody died. We never hear about the penalties for these idiots. Speeding tix are one thing, but combined with wreckless driving, consequence shoukd be very severe....
Don’t drive Let alone Race! If you’re vision impaired blind and can’t see😳
Hope that the innocent didn't get any big injuries and that the road didn't get any injuries. And the driver.... I hope he will spend the rest of his life paralyzed and unable to talk

The recording car wasn't in the passing lane!
Also was driving faster than the car in the slow lane, why do some of these commentors blame that driver?

Doesn’t even make sense that neither of them tried moving over….they both played chicken into the rear of a vehicle.
Rule #1 when racing: If the other guy wipes out, leave the scene, turn off quickly, and drive slowly home and park in the garage. It never happened!
What about when the other guy runs into you and both wipe out ???
It's all chill and fun until this happens. Stay safe and always follow the rules on the road. This is not a videogame.
And these are not race cars ! Just fast !

The collective of people in the comments trying to defend the illegal highway racing is a serious brainwave.
There’s a car in your lane! THERES A CAR IN YOUR LANE!
Didn’t even try to slow down 🤦♂️
Mustang: Still reinforcing the stereotype.
My boyfriend used to do the occasional street race, but now he keeps a picture of us over his RPM gauge to remind himself that it’s not worth it. When he told me the reason why he had the picture there I started crying.
From just that, he sounds like a good man. Much more caring for his fellow man as well. Being stupid could cost someone else their family members as well.
So he only started to care when it was his loved one affected? That’s still selfish.
Irony is WAY more guys do it BECAUSE so many women are into it. They're out there doing this TO get women, and do. Acting like this gets so many people heavily rewarded. While the people who refuse to do so out of responsibility, well they're boring, let's go do drugs with the bad boys

The corvette driver probably thought of the collision as a win for him and nothing more. Just like in video games.
Spoken like a Mustang driver. "That crowd didn't even try to get out of my way while I was flailing around at WOT"!!!

Wow life is so fragile and we seem to not be grateful for the gift. These punk thugs HAVE to go to jail for a number of years.
