Wild video shows towed car swinging around Texas highway

A wild video captures a car erratically swerving out of control as it is towed backwards on a busy Texas highway, with the driver looking visibly terrified inside.

In the footage, 32-year-old Dontae Brown appears panicked in his blue sedan as it dangerously veers around Houston’s North Loop, being pulled by a white SUV driven by his laughing girlfriend.

“What are you doing, stupid?” exclaimed David Chairez, who recorded the now-viral video of the chaotic event as the sedan dangerously swung across lanes, narrowly avoiding a collision with a barrier.

“It looked like a scene from ‘Fast & Furious,’” Chairez said. “That was very reckless, and that was very dangerous.”

Police later said Brown and his girlfriend came up with the dangerous, madcap plan because they could not afford a tow truck — with the chain they used to pull it then snapping off the car’s axle, leaving it swinging around, ABC 13 reported.


Witnesses said the man's girlfriend, who was towing the sedan while he was inside, was laughing as he swerved out of control.

Brown appeared upset when he finally came to a stop, witness Ken Collins said.

“It was crazy, I thought they was [about to] fight, I thought he was going to jump on the driver. He was yelling at the lady, he hit his hood,” Collins told KHOU.

“She was trying to talk to him, but he didn’t want to hear nothing of it. He was like, ‘you messed up my car, you [messed] up my car,’” he said.

Brown was arrested for an active warrant he had out of Georgia, but no citations were given in this case, according to police.
