Stolen Car Flips Over After Ignoring ‘Closed Road’ Signs (PICTURES)
Look, chances are if you’re willing to steal a car, you’re probably also going to ignore road signs. That can be a big problem if the signs are warning you of a closed road. That could mean danger is ahead. Well, a stolen car in Oregon flipped over after ignoring some closed road signs.
Seriously, these signs are up for a reason. Probably not the smartest idea to decide to ignore them. Let’s meet the guy who made that mistake.
Stolen Car Flips Over After Ignoring ‘Closed Road’ Signs
Well, after ignoring the closed road signs, this stolen car fell into a hole that was caused by a landslide, per the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office. In pictures, you can see the damage and the car flipped over inside a hole in the road. Looks like those signs should have been taken seriously. There’s no way you could drive down that road!
According to FOX 12, the individuals inside the car had run away prior to the police arriving. FOX 12 reports Tillamook County Sheriff’s Deputy Ben Berger said, “The road has been closed for sometime, but they removed the barrier and road closed signs and drove directly into the hole. This has been an ongoing problem, with people removing the barriers and driving on the closed portion of the road. Obviously, it is extremely dangerous.
FOX 12 reports that the owner of the stolen car alerted 911 to report their stolen car about an hour after the crash. They live about five miles from the scene of the accident. Police are still investigating the matter. Anyone with info is asked to contact Deputy Ben Berger at 503-815-3392.
Check out some photos from the scene of the accident that were shared by the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office below. Seriously, these people were lucky to make it out of that car alive!
That’s wild! Even criminals need to adhere to road signs. It’s even worse that people aren’t just ignoring the road signs, but physically removing them? Not a great idea!
5 of the Craziest Cringeworthy Crimes Ever Committed
While committing crimes may seem black and white (you either broke the law or you didn’t), there are certainly some crimes that are dumber than others. Sometimes it’s the crime itself that’s wild, other times, it’s the people committing said crimes. These are 5 of the craziest, cringeworthy crimes ever committed.
Crimes can happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. However, it takes a very unique individual, a case study if you will, to commit some of these outrageously dumb crimes. Years ago, these criminals would have been featured on Spike TV or one of those America’s Dumbest Criminal shows. Today, I’m not sure if those shows are around…and I’m certain Spike TV isn’t around anymore. That’s a story for another time.

Craziest Crimes
Crimes can happen for a number of reasons. They may happen out of necessity. They could also happen on accident. These crimes, however, do not fall into those categories. These crimes are different. None of these would accidentally happen. They also aren’t a matter of life or death. There’s no ethics quiz here, or any matters of ‘would you steal bread to support your family?’ These crimes, and criminals, aren’t straight up cringeworthy.
While all of these crimes are crazy and certainly cringeworthy, they also make for excellent conversation pieces. That’s why I’ve gone and found five examples of the wildest stories that Dave and Chuck the Freak have talked about and made a list highlighting the best of the best. Let’s be honest…what’s better than reading a story about one of the craziest crimes ever committed? Or, watching Dave and Chuck the Freak talk about some of the dumbest crimes ever committed? Personally, I’m going with the funny storytellers.
They add their own two cents and perspectives on these stories that nobody else could provide. Not even those talking heads on the dumbest criminal shows. Am I the only one who remembers those? I feel like they were a staple on TruTV or VH1, but now all I can find on TruTV is Impractical Jokers, which is awesome but…you get it. Let’s not delay! Here’s the list!
