Ford bills the Bronco and Bronco Sport as go anywhere, do anything SUVs. But the Blue Oval likely didn’t expect a Bronco Sport driver to test her vehicle’s off-road savvy by driving through still-wet concrete at a work site in Detroit. Sure enough, a video captured just that before the driver straightened up and drove away. 

Concrete can be tricky. You’ve got to carefully prepare your pour site, mix the concrete properly, and take special care to ensure a flat, imperfection-free surface. Make no mention of the occasional wayward Ford Bronco Sport driver driving through your freshly poured and already hardening concrete.

A video captured the moment that a Southfield work site received a very unwelcome guest in Northwestern Detroit. It opens on a series of large orange worksite barrels, the kind you’d see at the vast majority of construction zones across the country. Sadly, there’s a group of workers in bright-yellow attire, possibly those responsible for the work site, who watched the debacle unfold.

The video zooms in, showing a driver in her red Ford Bronco Sport with her front and rear driver-side tires practically buried in still-wet concrete. She continues to spin her tires using all-wheel drive (AWD), churning the poured concrete as she did. Eventually, the front, driver-side tire finds a pile of gravel and pulls itself out of the concrete, with the rear rubber close behind. Then, like nothing happened, the driver takes off, leaving a devastated work site behind. 

Understandably, the internet was less than sympathetic. “She’s about to be riding around on them Fred Flinstones,” one viewer joked about the hardening concrete still clinging to her wheels and tires. “If only there were bright orange cones to tell us where to and not [to] go,” another commented. 

Check out the short video of the driver sinking her tires into the wet concrete and running like hell below!
