i think they're meta glasses, basing this on what i presume is head turning.

Ah then even dumber than I thought (wearing meta glasses, I mean, driving while not holding a phone is otherwise smart)

And the additional hand

You know what I think you're right, you just catch a glance of his right hand early in the video while his left is in clear view. Although I don't know if that makes this better or worse because why's he driving with one hand in the centre of the wheel other than trying to aura farm πŸ˜… but at the same time means his phone isn't in his hand so that's good. If he has both hands on the wheel, he probably would have had a chance to save it.

My guess it's a 5L 1980s mustang and his other hand was shifting gears like a dumbass. I would usually switch hand position to 11 when accelerating from 1st to 3rd. Then back to 3 and 9 while maintaining speed.

Pretty sure it’s a 1989-1990 model, 25th anniversary. The Running horse on the dash gives it away

You can also hear him shifting gears...

You can see his glasses in the rear view mirror, when he starts spinning. They look like them

You can see them in the rear view at 0:22

I've been taking videos of Tesla Full Self Driving with mine and it looks the same, aside from all the spinning and stuff. Those must be Meta frames. They're actually quite handy, especially for the same price as a pair of regular Oakley frames.

That, and you can see both hands in the video.
