VIDEO. Driver throws more than 180,000 euros out of his car window and wreaks havoc on the motorway

This spectacular scene took place on an American highway in recent days. And almost once morest all odds, it was simply a crazy gesture of generosity.

It’s not a robbery that went wrong… No, this barely believable story reported by the local American news channel ABC is that of a man who simply wanted to distribute 200,000 dollars, or nearly 180,000 euros, to his fellow men. The only problem is that he decided to do it while driving on the highway…

Indeed, while this American was driving near Eugene, Oregon, this Wednesday, April 12, 2023, the latter, in order to “bless others with gifts”, according to him, opened the window of his car and so dumped tens of thousands of dollars.

A generous but also very dangerous gesture, since, as local authorities report, the situation has endangered many motorists who got out of their vehicles and started running on the highway to pick up the tickets…

The driver allegedly emptied the family bank account

As local media explain, a few hours following the events, in the evening, many residents of the area were still numerous, flashlight in hand, exploring the surroundings to try to pick up a few tickets.

But the story does not end there, since this driver Colin David McCarthy, 38, would have emptied the bank account of his relatives in order to be able to organize this very atypical distribution of money. “Now we are broke,” said one of his family members.

For their part, the police explained that they might not do much, since the account in question was shared by the siblings … The latter still asks those who would have recovered money in this case Please return him to the authorities. Not sure she is heard.
