'Watched Too Much Fast & Furious:' MK4 Toyota Supra Evades Police on Highway. Then a Trooper Conducts 'Insane' PIT Maneuver
A Toyota Supra MK4 driver attempted to evade Florida police and ended up the subject of a trooper's PIT maneuver. But the internet is more concerned with the judgement of the driver, based on the specs of the vehicle. A Reddit user posted dashcam footage of the incident to the Supra subreddit on June 11. The video shows a Florida Highway Patrol trooper pursuing a black Supra MK4 at a presumably high rate of speed. The trooper catches up to the Supra and performs the PIT maneuver, which sends it spinning across the highway and into a utility pole.

A PIT maneuver , or precision immobilization technique, involves striking the rear end of a vehicle to cause it to spin out. Its use is controversial, as it often leads to wrecks like the one that ended with the MK4 Toyota Supra smashed up like an aluminum can. The Redditor who posted it wondered, 'What's the story behind this chase?' Another sarcastically replied, 'Idiot watched too much Fast and Furious .' Others pointed to another r/Supra thread discussing a screenshot of the FHP Tampa's Instagram post regarding the incident. The post includes three photos of the Supra, which was completely destroyed. The caption explains that a trooper attempted to stop the driver for going 93 mph in a 55 mph speed zone. A chase ensued, followed by a crash. Rather miraculously, the driver reportedly walked away from the crash with non-life-threatening injuries and went to a local hospital for treatment.

Then He Changes Settings One thing that pretty much everyone across platforms agrees on is that the driver (if what police say is true) made a poor decision with a precious vehicle. "I drive an NA Supra," wrote one Redditor. "There's a reason I don't do stupid things. Why destroy the illusion that all Supras make 1000 horsepower by putting the foot down and showing you only have 150 horsepower? Now everyone will know just how slow my car is. Jerk." The Supra MK4, which Toyota released from 1993-2002, was one of the definitive sports cars of that decade. The fourth generation of the model is known for its power and appearance in the Fast and Furious film series. An Instagram user blamed the police. "You totaled a special car and caught a guy speeding. Almost killed the driver and passenger with the maneuver,' they wrote. 'Good job." 'The junkyard's gonna love this one,' another user joked. This is a rare model of Supra. A person on an MK4 forum claims that there were only about 47,000 ver produced. So it's understandable that some corners of the internet are upset that this one was destroyed in an arguably avoidable crash. Motor1 reached out to Toyota via email for comment.

Judge dismisses multiple claims in Vin Diesel sex abuse lawsuit from ex-assistant
Judge dismisses multiple claims in Vin Diesel sex abuse lawsuit from ex-assistant Show Caption Hide Caption Elon Musk faces allegations of workplace harassment at SpaceX Elon Musk has been accused of pursuing sexual relationships with women at SpaceX, including a former intern 20 years his junior. unbranded - Newsworthy Over a year after Vin Diesel was sued by a former assistant, who accused him of wrongful termination and sexual assault, the judge in the case is dismissing some of its most potent claims. In a tentative ruling on June 3, Judge Daniel M. Crowley agreed to dismiss four different claims of harassment made by Diesel's former employee Asta Jonasson. Jonasson, who originally sued the actor in December 2023, has alleged he sexually assaulted her in the fall of 2010 during the filming of "Fast Five," the fifth installment of his brand-making "Fast and Furious" franchise. She was then unceremoniously fired, she alleges, a claim that lies at the center of the parts of the lawsuit Crowley opted to dismiss. USA TODAY has reached out to lawyers for both Diesel and Jonasson for comment. 'The Fast and the Furious' turns 20: Vin Diesel recalls fixing Paul Walker's 'goofy lines' A technical rather than substantive error, Crowley ruled that because Jonasson levied her claims under California's Fair Employment and Housing Act, she would have been required to file a complaint with the state's Civil Rights Division within a certain time frame. She would have had to file the complaint within a year of the incident, a deadline which came and went in 2011, Crowley wrote, calling it an "incurable procedural defect" that required he dismiss Jonasson's claims of a hostile work environment, discrimination, retaliation and a failure to prevent harassment on the part of Diesel and his company. While this week's ruling notches a small win for the action star, he will continue to face Jonasson's six other allegations, which include accusations of sexual battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Vin Diesel to stay with 'Fast and Furious' franchise after sexual assault lawsuit What is Vin Diesel accused of? According to the original lawsuit, Jonasson was hired by Diesel's production company, One Race (also named in the suit), to work for him in various capacities, including accompanying the actor to parties and ensuring she was nearby in photos if the actor attended events without his longtime girlfriend. After a late night in September 2010, Jonasson's lawyers allege she was asked to wait for Diesel in his suite at the St. Regis hotel while he entertained hostesses from a club. When the women left, Diesel grabbed Jonasson's wrists and pulled her onto the bed, according to the lawsuit. She escaped and asked Diesel to leave, but he allegedly began to grope her breasts, kiss her chest and run his hands along her waist and upper legs, including her inner thighs. Jonasson was afraid to "forcibly refuse her superior" for her personal safety and job security, but after Diesel moved to pull down her underwear, Jonasson screamed and ran down a hallway. According to the lawsuit, Diesel pinned her to the wall and placed her hand on his genitals and then masturbated, while "terrified, Ms. Jonasson closed her eyes, trying to dissociate from the sexual assault and avoid angering him," according to the suit. Hours later, Diesel's sister and president of One Race, Samantha Vincent, called Jonasson to fire her after fewer than two weeks on the job, the suit says. Though Jonasson signed a nondisclosure agreement when she accepted the position, she was able to file the claims because of the Speak Out Act, which prevents the enforcement of nondisclosure agreements in instances of sexual assault and assault and harassment, and California's AB2777, which temporarily waives statutes of limitations for sexual abuse allegations occurring in 2009 or later.
