Large scale rc accidents?

We live in a country where everything is a law suit so it’s scary to think what these big 5iveT’s can do at WOT and outta control ?

Real question is do you walk away jump in the car and leave like you were never there nor owned a Rc ever in your life.
Or do you run to check on the Rc and dial 911 for the injured lady missing a limb ??‍♂️?

on a more serious note, I would like to PAGE @Harold Bascom to this thread. He’s got plenty to say on this matter
PAGING @Harold Bascom, Mr.Bascom please report to customer service desk ???
 
Sad thing is we have alot more to lose when its car vs 1/5 scale...like the post @dougstar posted with the kraken vs that car bumper...the guy parted out at minimum a 2500 build and got peanuts for what he put in and put out 900 for a new bumper cover,labor and some paint... im not entirely worried about these when all 4 are on the ground its when they get airborne in a neighborhood with cars around is when i see some real damage coming. Airborne 5th scale vs windshield roof line game over

so im curious to hear or see if anyone has been involved or seen any large scale accidents.
I let my uncle drive my 5ive t yesterday, he has zero experience with rc so I showed him the ropes with the controller and he said got it plus it was a very large field so I felt it was somewhat safe. He got a little cocky with driving it after watching me do a few fly by's. Well he made it one lap around the field heading back to us coming in hot, well he ended up going about 35 right into his 11 year old son. It was an honest accident and over confidence in handling the truck. My cousin went about 4 feet in the air in a plank position in less than a second. I couldn't believe it and had zero time to ask or react to what he was doing...my cousin is ok tho a little banged up but fine. Anyone else seen or have any experiences lol

Yeah I let my wife try my 5t. I demonstrated exactly what to do and how to use the brakes and she drove up the side of neighbors house. Luckily there was no damage to the house.
