Reporter: "this is one of the most dangerous streets"
Driver: "allow me to demonstrate"

[fifthrider]

This is the most instantly honest and verified piece of reporting I have ever seen.

[GaryElGringo]

I was a reporter for a rival station when Gene worked in Louisville. Absolute professional, a great reporter, and overall a nice human being. I wouldn't expect anything less from him seeing this live shot.

[DippedInInk]

The way the reporter kept his cool and remained professional is top tier.

[nikerailfanningttm]

I love how the cameraman just follows the cars colliding without hesitation. Props to him.

[DKLONGHORN]

Reporter: "Its pretty wild out here" *instant proof*
Me: "Damn, that's some good reporting"

[douglaspinsak]

This wasn’t just an accident, it was a hit and run on a segment about a hit and run.

[Bourbn_DCLXVI]

You do a hit and run but leave your bumper with license plate🤦‍♂

[alancorp]

This man is so good that he reports the event before it happens. Well deserving of a raise

[jimmyrhino]

That's crazy. Covering a hit and run story and another hit and run happens.

[jermainecharles]

REPORTER: This is one of the most dangerous streets here in LA.

CARS: Let's give them a live demonstration on how dangerous.

[AriessunvirgomoonlightLibraise]

When I need to laugh I come to this video because the way they kept driving was beyond ignorant, like "welp, I wanted to go this way anyways"😂

[almostatami]

Give Gene and that cameraman a raise please. That was damn good reporting.

[Unknown_Ooh]

Nobody giving props to the camera operator for catching that accident and panning the camera as it happens 😆

[nonconnahordeath]

Hats off to Gene and his cameraperson. Total professionalism.

[CattleTheCat]

Newsman: “This is one of the most dangerous streets”

The Car: *”Observe”*

[ndk]

The timing of everything was absolutely perfect. One in a billion

[BrittanyCope]

Reporter standing very close to road: “This is the most dangerous street.”
*Cars speed past and I instantly am terrified for the reporter.

[streetfightsguild]

That guy literally hit and run on live run. The driver is crazy!

[lycorisradiata]

"this is the most dangerous road."
few seconds later
"and we have the evidence."
