The really bad thing is how they try to get the car out of the tarmac. OMG. Would be better to call a professional recovery service that can lift it out of the tarmac by lifting it on the rims with support straps.

Oh man, that would suck. Had to be a female driver cause it's a 911. :D

That's not tarmac, it's freshly poured concrete. This was on jalopnik and YouTube a while back. What was that pylon concentrating on? Probably something other than driving.

With all that expansion and hard freeze I'll bet it's toast. Boiler went down (power outage), insufficient glycol, house froze, boiler could not heat, pipes froze.

OR, "damn kids left the garage door up again!!!" at pretty much any house in Canada.....

Hello?? AAA????? I have your sign in my garage, and, well........

What years had the name over the bumper? 80's?

Probably had a 986 on his arse and wanting to impress him. To busy looking into his rear view mirror

I have to think there was no time to call for recovery as that car was about to become a permanent fixture


Is that how the Mafia out there does Cement Shoes

If you can just drive onto wet cement then the construction crew did not properly block off the road.
I'm sure they got an earful from the in-house lawyers.
