I was in traffic once and there were two fire trucks behind me blaring their sirens. I was next to the curb to make a left hand turn. As the trucks came closer the cars around me tried to get out of the way. I tried to get the X5 onto the curb when the xdrive kicked in. As soon as the left front wheel touched the curb I felt as if I was being pulled onto the median. All the power went to that wheel and the damned thing climbed onto the curb with minimal effort.

Fooking Xdrive FTW.

A 62-year-old Ontario woman has been charged in connection with an incredible hit-and-run incident that quickly became a YouTube sensation.

The accident, which occurred on Oct. 22 in a town just north of Toronto, was reminiscent of a monster truck show -- a black BMW SUV pulled into a parking spot too quickly, mounted a small curb and rolled over two other parked cars.

The incident was captured by security cameras installed in the parking lot of Extreme Fitness, located south of Highway 7 on Yonge Street in Thornhill.

The surveillance footage shows the driver of the SUV pause and then slowly back out of the parking spot and drive out of the lot. However, the video doesn't show the face of the driver or the car's licence plate number.

Shortly after the accident, the video was posted on YouTube and several other international websites. The clip has generated more than 880,000 hits on YouTube in the past week.

The owner of the one of the cars that was hit is a staff member at Extreme. On Wednesday, he saw a car in the fitness club's parking lot that matched the description of the one seen in the surveillance video and called police.

Investigators arrived at the scene and interviewed a suspect who is a member of the gym.

Tripta Kaushal, a Richmond Hill resident, has been charged with failing to remain at the scene of an accident.

She is expected in a Newmarket courtroom on Dec. 1.

Yesterday somebody posted what appeared to be a X5 (still not 100% sure) hitting a biker in this thread This time around though you can be 100% sure that it was a X5 that started this disaster in a Chicago parking garage.
