A recent video making the rounds on social media is highlighting a few questionable decisions by GM vehicle owners. Posted by the FailArmy Instagram account (@failarmy), the 25-second montage is titled “How to get to school on time,” and showcases a series of General Motors vehicle “fails,” mixed in with a couple of bicycle “fails.” The video also includes some tongue-in-cheek “rules” for the road for those about to head back to class.
The first GM vehicle to make an appearance is a third-generation Chevy Equinox. In the clip, the driver ambitiously drives through a flooded street, only to meet a surprise when the road suddenly dips. The front end of the Equinox plunges into the water, lifting the rear wheels off the ground as the vehicle starts to float. The caption reads, “Never let a puddle win,” summing up the ill-advised river crossing.
Next up is a two-door GMC S-15 Jimmy, a vehicle that’s clearly seen better days. The Jimmy is shown speeding down a highway, despite missing a wheel. Sparks fly as the mangled suspension grinds against the asphalt, but the driver seems unfazed, continuing along their way at high speeds. The rule accompanying this clip: “Take Dad’s car.”
The final GM vehicle featured is a Chevy S-10 that looks like it survived a rollover accident. The truck’s roof is crushed, and the cabin appears barely intact, yet the driver is still behind the wheel, determined to keep going. With the door swinging open and the roof almost collapsing onto the driver, the rule reads, “Don’t let damage stop you.”
Sprinkled throughout the video are a few odd clips of folks on bicycles, including one bicyclist who rolls through a lecture hall, and another who rolls through a red light.

Before I even got past the headline, I knew it was Johnathan Lopez who made it.
