The Car Catcher Aka Motor Device (1939) | British Pathé

Looks like a Tex Avery invention skit, lol!

Можно не смотреть на дорогу и сгребать всех пешеходов по пути😅

That's like w people on there phones today

I think it's a great idea for today's cars.

надо было развивать это направление

With people Still Dumb enough to drive 80 mph in the rain & through entrances at Walmart and grocery stores …this is never gana work

Its not that bad of an idea

🤣🤣🤣💪

Dávno říkám, že je jenom otázka času, než mi nějakej váš čurák skočí pod kola ..


S tím, jak jste stále ubožejší, je to jenom otázka času...

If that pedestrian was wearing an orange "just stop oil" vest these might just make a come back 😂

Cantik sgt ke video tiktok tadi?

Looks like something you would see in a old Laurel and Hardy movie.😅

Комфорт и сервис😂

That smarmy narrator gets old fast.

They need these nowadays for the Just Stop Oil people.

Does this work on climate protesters glueing themselves to the streets too?

Was this supposed to be a joke?

Saw a guy get hit at Newark airport. New jersey. Guy flew about 20 feet in the air n hit a sign. Very sad

So naive

"Car Catcher" It doesn't catch cars.

Can someone please tell me what that car brand and model is?

At least our cars can dance in our days...

"Sometimes that's more than he deserves." Preach it brother!

Where can I buy one ?👍

i mean you couldve just researched better brakes but ok

"when it isn't eating pedestrians"

No one ever points out that humans weren't used to dealing with giant metal boxes barreling towards them at any moment.

cancer colonizers

Useful for dealing with climate protesters

Imagine hitting someone with this with 120 km/h speed. That couldn't end good...

This would be perfect for all the protesters laying in the middle of the street

Neyse ki seri üretime girmeden trafik işaretleri ve yaya geçidi icad edildi ❤

Kind've reminds me of the Jew Swatter Machine from Family Guy

This would work great againsts those pesky climate (change) protesters.

I’m not sure but instead of pulling a lever to open the people eater wouldn’t that time be better spent stomping on the brake to just avoid them.

Halfords?

We seriouly need this in Germany. But with Spikes.

Seberapa efektif jika kecepatan mobil 80km/h? 🤨🤔

What cars is the car catcher catching?

That’s a great snow plow

Why did they discontinue this this would be a good safety mechanism?

Хотел бы я сейчас посмотреть что было с этим чуваком в наше время на скорости 200км. ч. 🪦

Genius technology that has now been abandoned

What if they forget to turn it on?

Yeah. As a former NCO, I seen the mass majority and what you can do...reason why it never caught on because this requires reaction speed, situational awareness and hand eye coordination. Mass Majority ain't got that...

Wonder if there are any surviving examples of this invention

Now we drive giant trucks that ensure the pedestrian dies .

“Wanna go for a ride?”

In 1939 cars were unknown to most Britons. The chances of getting knocked down by a car back then were very low - they had more chance of being hit by a bus or tram. Either way this device was just plain ridiculous 😂
