I'm assuming that red lights mean the same thing there as they do here?
Yes they do....

Lots of myth About this.. About a French f1 driver doing it with a camera mounted on the nose of a 275gtb ... Arrests after the film festival etc..

Apparently it was actually cluade in his v8 merc... The sound of the engine and gear changes is obviously a bit out of sync ... Still its fun.

There used to also be a great one with a Porsche 930 called escape Stockholm.. Or similar... All very naughty...but a little fun to watch :D

Yeah, the Stockholm was the original and greatest. An oldie but goodie. But that Sunbeam one is new - superb!

I’m thinking about putting together an Atlanta version of this video, which would be about two minutes of spirited driving, followed by 43 minutes of stop and go traffic, followed by a detour because of a downed tree even though the weather is fine.

Michael,

Where was the Tiger one done? Looks a lot like upstate NY, around where I live!

The "Loot" store at the end appears to be in Turners Falls, MA (close to the Vermont state line).

Brings back memories, I learned to ski about 50 miles West of there.
