An unusual traffic incident in Miami was captured on video and shared on the 'Only in Dade' Instagram account, showing a driver in what appears to be a silver BMW Series 6, involved in an accident while trying to flee the scene.
According to the images, the driver violently collided with a pickup truck, presumably parked in front of a house. In the crash, the force of the impact not only severely damaged both vehicles but also knocked down part of a metal fence.
Despite the visible damage to his own vehicle, the driver did not stop and kept moving forward, dragging the truck several meters before overturning it on its side in the middle of the road.
The video clearly shows how the truck is completely overturned in the middle of the street, while witnesses watch the scene in shock. At the moment, it has not been confirmed whether there were any injuries during the incident, nor have official reports been released regarding the identity of the driver or potential arrests.
The dangerous maneuver, carried out as what seems to be a desperate attempt to flee the scene, highlights the risks of driving irresponsibly and the seriousness of leaving the scene of an accident, a crime that is severely punished in the United States.
Local authorities have not issued official statements on the matter, but it is expected that the viral video will help identify the vehicle involved and its driver.
This new episode once again puts Miami in the spotlight due to traffic incidents that are both shocking and irresponsible.
Traffic accidents and leaks in Miami
This case adds to a growing concern about traffic accidents in South Florida. So far in 2025, more than 40 people have lost their lives in road accidents in Miami-Dade County, according to recent reports.
In recent months, several high-risk incidents have caught the attention of authorities and the public. In mid-March, a young Cuban was involved in a police chase at over 120 mph, ending in a brutal crash after attempting to escape. In January, another Cuban was accused of hitting a construction worker and fleeing the scene in a work zone.
These cases highlight an alarming trend of reckless driving and underline the need to strengthen traffic control and awareness measures in Miami.
