- In the battle between trees and Ford Mustangs, the foliage has scored another victory.
- This time, the grass also played a role in the demise of the pony car.
- The driver left the roadway after a burnout and ended up at least one story below the road in a parking garage.
Ford Mustangs seem to have a knack for crashing and we’ve found more evidence of that today. In what some are describing as an exit from a Cars and Coffee event gone wrong, one pony car met its demise. It’s unclear how the driver made so many bad decisions in a row, but they likely learned a lesson in the process.
The video begins with the Mustang loudly driving into the frame from right to left. It’s clear from the sound that the driver is deep into the throttle pedal. Within three seconds, the Mustang has left the pavement though. It slides off of the roadway to the left and onto a grassy hill. Now, with no real traction to speak of, destruction is inevitable.

The pony car slides down the hill and absolutely destroys a tree in the process. While the driver’s condition is unknown, the accident might have been worse if not for the tree. It appears to slow the car down quite a bit before the Mustang ends up at the bottom of the hill. There, on the edge of the ground floor of a parking garage, it hits a Ford truck and possibly one more vehicle.

A photograph of the sports car after it came to rest shows the hood completely gone, the front passenger-side wheel and tire halfway out of the wheel well, and damage to the driver’s door. It appears as though none of the airbags went off which is somewhat surprising given the violent nature of this wreck.
In case it wasn’t obvious before, this sort of driving is very clearly best suited for the race track. Not only are there fewer trees this close to the road, the chance that one will crash into a parked car is practically zero.
