Found this interesting. Looks like it’s in 🇺🇸. Surprised it has not been towed.

Heard of stories of abandoned vehicles in the Middle East (Dubai?), but with super cars.

    This reminds me of walking around NYC near ground zero about a month after 9/11. There were a ton of cars covered in dust and people hard written stuff like “we will never forget” on them.

      That’s not even necessarily true; it’s possible their immediate family was simply too poor to insure or tow the vehicle and so left it abandoned.

      To me it seems especially grim because the owner was well enough to drive themselves to the hospital, park and get themselves inside and were never well enough to leave (except in a bodybag or maybe a hospital transport to a hospice).

    Maybe they had brain surgery and came out with permanent amnesia, no memory of their car or former life. So they were forced to start over with a clean slate. Maybe they are better off and happier than ever before. Maybe that car was even rigged to explode if they would have gotten back into it. Look at the bright side.

      This is exactly what happened and nothing can persuade me otherwise. They got a newer, better car!

      Or maybe they were a career criminal who was driving this stolen car and parked it at the hospital. Then they got into another stolen car with a bunch of guns in the trunk. And then they killed a bunch of other people!
