People working out at a Planet Fitness in South Philly had their workouts cut short, when a driver in a SUV drove through the gym wall. Apparently, authorities are unsure of what caused the accident. Reports indicate that nobody inside the gym at the time was injured. 

This dude realized they'd been driving their car in third gear, for years, without having a clue about it. Bit of a humbling moment, to be sure. I guess, better to learn late than never!

Good old auto repair shops are there to pick up the pieces and put them back together, when fails present themselves. The following collection of fails that just rolled into the auto repair shop might serve to remind you that someone else out there could be struggling with an unimaginable kind of automotive issue. 

You see it over and over again, someone parks like a jackass, then finds that someone can be a jackass right back to them. This guy who wasted an illegally parked Karen's time is another good example. People will never learn when it comes to this stuff, which is why people keep having to step in.

Here are stories, mostly from mechanics, who had to witness the aftermath of people's horrible automobile decisions. Some out of negligence, some from people who wanted their car to look cool and put form over function, and others who were just plain stupid. People are pretty ignorant about their own automobiles. Here are tumblr users getting schooled on physics and car safety, and here are people who parked like jerks.

Some people really don't care about inconveniencing other folks around them at all. These drivers couldn't have made more of a mess in the parking lot with their horrendous parking jobs. All we're missing on these is the people that parked the cars reacting to the fallout from their careless acts of recklessness. 

The general idea here is whether or not older cars are "better" than newer ones when it comes to accidents. Sure, an older sturdy car won't fall apart as easily in an accident. What it will do is transfer all the kinetic energy of a crash directly into your body. Sometimes people on the internet are wrong about stuff, like this discussion about the facts of plague and veganism

When this dad showed up at a luxury car dealership not looking the part of a wealthy customer, the employees proceeded to not take him seriously. They were rude and judgmental, and ultimately paid the price. Dad gets the sweet satisfaction of enjoying free car washes from the very people who wrote him off in the first place.
