“Don’t Kill Us”: Video captures terrifying turn in teen’s high-speed ride

Abbotsford – A teenager from Abbotsford has had his driver’s licence suspended after being found guilty of several driving offences. RCMP Highway Patrol has released video footage to highlight the dangers of speeding and making unsafe driving choices.

​A cell phone video, given to police by choice, shows the teen putting himself and his friends in danger instead of stopping for a routine speeding ticket.

​The incident happened in July 2025, when a BMW sedan was caught going 180 km/h in a 100 km/h zone on Highway One. Rather than stopping, the 16-year-old driver sped off with his two friends, eventually crashing into a parked dump truck.

​The video shows how quickly the teen’s friends went from having fun to pleading, ‘don’t kill us.’

​The RCMP hopes the video encourages parents to talk with their children about how dangerous these situations can be.

The car was towed and impounded for seven days. The driver’s stepmother is now responsible for paying the related costs, including any collision deductible or repairs.
