Recognizing what was going on, the owner of the SUV pulled the handbrake. Due to the sudden braking, the SUV toppled over three times before coming to a halt. The host in the video mentions that had the owner not done that, the SUV would’ve hit an electricity pole at high speed. The consequences would’ve been much worse. Thankfully, all six passengers escaped this crash unscathed. That is a testament to the build quality of the SUV. However, we can’t pass on any judgment based on this isolated incident.
