Beadle, who went by the nickname 1Stockf30, changed lanes, shifting from the left to the right one when he drifted into the shoulder and crushed into the metal pole.Videos of the social media influencer veering off the road were shared online, showing the terrified onlookers rushing towards the damaged vehicle.

Following the accident, traffic slowed significantly, with CitizenApp video capturing police officers examining debris, including a tire, under an overpass.

 

Two weeks prior to his passing, Beadle shared with his followers a video of his BMW reaching incredible speed, going from 100 to 150 mph in just 2.97 seconds.

The post was captioned, “It’s just a BMW.”

Beadle uploaded a YouTube video showing himself and his buddies fixing up the now-destroyed car only hours before his death.

Beadle’s social media accounts were flooded with messages from his many fans and followers.

“The car scene lost a young King. You put NYC back on the map in a positive perspective. You gave our scene the respect we needed. Not just known for idiotic takeovers. You’ve gained the respect of many, and that will live on as your legacy. Rest easy, you will never be forgotten,” one comment read.

“Still can’t believe this man, the world will miss you brother, you made a big impact, peace,” another wrote.
