"It was coned off," according to Bobswire, a user of the Paceline bike forums (http://forums.thepaceline.net/). "He was just trying to sneak in from a side street. [The] concrete looked solid." Bobswire reports that the hapless driver remained stuck in his car. "He didn't want to open the door and have concrete get in; the whole undercarriage and brakes will need to [be] cleaned or replaced."

Whether the uncured pavement was concrete, asphaltic concrete, or just plain cement is up for debate. What's unquestionable, however, is that this is the best Lightning McQueen impression we've seen since Cars (http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/cars-2006/). Check out more photos below, then write your own punchline in the comments section.

some kind of arrogance in play there perhaps. Shame about the car though. Would love to be the owner of one of those.

A good 4X4 would be able to drive through that concrete and right over that porsche, and make it home on time for dinner.

I hate dumb-bums who think, "I'm soooooooo important, rules for regular people don't apply to me." I love seeing things like this.

Reminds me of the older picture of the BMW parked in front of a fire-hydrant with the hose going through the door windows to attach to the hydrant.
