Scion-Driving Crazy Lady Forces High Speed Chase, Gets Out To Flip Off Cops
 
okay.. I saw this on TV and couldn't stop laughing... You drive a scion XB! How far can you go?? :icon17:

Click for video: Jalopnik - Scion-Driving Crazy Lady Forces High Speed Chase, Gets Out To Flip Off Cops - Long Beach High Speed Chase

A lunatic in a Scion xB took California police on a bizarre 40 mile high speed chase, at times stopping to get out of the car to hurl obscenities and "gestures" at officers.

An unnamed woman attempted to ram a patrol car in Long Beach, CA. The car, responding to calls of a woman screaming in an intersection, then followed the Scion on a 40 mile chase at freeway speeds breaching the 100 MPH (xB's can go that fast?) barrier. The chase included moments where the Scion and officers drove against traffic, in circles in the median and most impressively, included a couple seconds when the woman exited the car to scream at the cops and flip them off. She was finally boxed in, pulled from the car and taken into custody, but seriously, that's a whole lot of crazy right there. [Huffington Post]

:bowrofl:
At least she had the decency to turn her Hazard Flashers on...

See you gotta love the toaster. I watched this live the other day and was amazed at how easily she was able to out maneuver the police with her Fwd 105HP Box.

BanningZ approved! :tup:

I'm calling shenanigans, I find it hard to believe those toasters can get to 100 mph.

BanningZ 04-11-2009 07:00 PM

No shenanigans. I've done 100mph in the Toaster. Its a little scary considering the amazing aerodynamics that Toyota employed when designing the xB.

100 mph in a 108 hp block with possibly the worst aerodynamics ever implemented? My hat is off to you sir.

Well, a 'real' toaster (aka cylon) has faster-than-light travel :D

They were more aerodynamic.

actually I think this has better aerodynamics than a xB

Scion xB's, Also good for hooking.

roflrofl. Great gas mileage and a place to lay pipe? Sold!
Anyway, to make sure this somewhat stays on topic, that lady getting out and flipping them off is hilarious. That takes brass.

epod86 04-11-2009 07:55 PM

Or meds, or voices, or illegal meds, or booze... do I continue?

Though I will shake my head in disgust if it isn't one of those reasons.
In that case, bring on the cylons!

frost 04-11-2009 07:57 PM

I didn't say how she got the brass :D
Yeah, she's messed up. If shes not on something, I would be pretty surprised.

Yes, Scion owners are this sad:
