The FDNY said eight people were evaluated for non-life-threatening injuries, and two were taken to the hospital. At this point, there's no word on what caused the crash.

Is This How Gen Z Handles A Car Crash?
Read the full story on The Auto Wire People are shocked at footage a Gen Z driver took right getting into a car crash because of how she handled the situation. After all, she appears to have recorded the aftermath before calling the cops or even getting out of her overturned right, this girl, who looks like she's in her late teens or early 20s, rolled her car and is talking to her followers while recording herself still strapped in, hanging upside down. We assume she's doing this because she was already livestreaming herself driving. Ironically, the livestreaming (if that's what she was doing) could have been the cause of the crash. The girl laughs while saying something about people wondering what it's like when 'you just totaled a car.' She's not answering that question because she's not acting like a normal person. You see, someone who isn't addicted to their device and posting on social media would've gotten out of the vehicle before getting out their phone. Then they would've called the police and maybe a close friend or relative. Perhaps she should've called her parent(s) who obviously owns the car. And maybe that's why she's not all that upset about the crash, because she has no skin in the game. The video is just plain weird and shows how some people just aren't living in reality. They're experiencing everything through their devices while constantly wondering if what they're going through will make good content for their social media followers. That's not living. We can't tell specifically what car the girl is driving, but we can see the interior is two-tone and there's a Mazda badge on the steering wheel hub. In other words, it's a newer Mazda of some sort. We bet her mom and/or dad is going to be really upset when they see this video. Image via Brandi Mcmullen/Facebook Join our Newsletter, subscribe to our YouTube page, and follow us on Facebook.
