We have come across many people on the road who think they are smarter than everyone else. However, there are cases where they end up in precarious situations, to say the least.
A lady in Jeep Compass was acting over-smart and her antics were captured in this video clip. Jeep Compass is a popular SUV in many parts of the world. That is the reason why it received so much attention when the American carmaker launched it in India as well. Its great driving capabilities, iconic look, premium interiors and 4×4 capabilities make it an attractive offering. However, its 4×4 capabilities are not as pronounced as some of its bigger siblings like the Wrangler. Here is a classic case in point.
