This is why Uhaul doenst need to pay for advertisement. This pays for itself.

[alecm]

Imagine having the last eyes on the suspect to get told to look for the car on fire.

I love how they put all the pursuits on live tv in LA. I kinda miss seeing them. Lived out that direction back in the 90's. I remember they would just bust in on regular programming to bring you a live chase.

I like how he tried to walk off cool like the heli wasn't there

[hedi]

These new U-Haul commercials are insane!

[steelwitness]

this was so hard to watch man i almost cried. we need to end these types of violence. thousands of uhaul trucks are abused every year and where is the media? no where to be found.

This reporter had me laughing when the guy jumped over the wall and he said he lost his shoes that's a shame and he fell and said that must of hurt.

[AdorzAaliyahSince]

He took "I'm gonna ride this until the wheels fall off!" too literally!!

[TheLavaenygg]

Amazing how long someone can talk about absolutely nothing. While useless, it is a true talent.

[thedon]

I bet the guy that rented the truck declined that insurance, ouch.

[rychbiggs]

I knew I shouldn't have hired that guy to move my stuff.

[cantcomeupwithausern]

"He lost his shoes, well thats ashame.. anyways.." had me dying! hahaha

[jessebrass]

i love how concerned Dennis is about what is inside the truck. I hope he found out and hopefully Stu found out what was burning. The best part of the whole thing is "where did that trash come from?" and "There goes the spike strips, YESSS!"

[joycecourts]

He casually walked thru the parking lot and out thru the gate like he lived there.

*Buddy hops over the fence*
News guy: "Were gonna try to keep an eye on him"
Also News guy: "hEy LoOk At ThE fIrE!"

1:26:18 the irony of the close up showing the text "Gentle-Ride Van" while flames emanate from the rim.

[humblehombre]

The worst part of this, is listening to the stammering vapid chatter from the newscasters. They went to school?

[-_-Code-_-]

i love how 1 misspoken word spawns more from multiple people.. "involved in flames"

[SonicBlueTyphoon]

This is what I don’t understand. At 20:14, that truck is basically at a stop, with a lane on the left open. Now i know this isn’t GTA, but isn’t there some sort of advantage the police can gain here to help stop the truck when it’s basically not moving?
