Stupid Criminal Files: Car Dealership Employees Take BMW on Joyride, Post Video on YouTube

You and your buddy work at a BMW dealership. You decide to take a just-delivered BMW 1 Series M Coupe on a joyride. You make a video of your escapade. Guess what's next? Yep, you face criminal charges.

This is what happened to Vacheh Margoussian, 21, and Artin Yazidjian, 22, who "face misdemeanor charges for taking a car from Pacific BMW in August, according to a complaint filed by the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office on Wednesday," reports CBS2.

On the video, posted to YouTube, one of the Glendale car dealership employees is allegedly heard saying: “This is the 1-M, second one at the dealership. Going for a test drive!”

The pair reportedly drove through the residential streets at high speeds, netting the alleged driver, Margoussian, a charge of reckless driving.

    What's the difference between a BMW and porcupines?
    On the porcupine - the pricks are on the outside...

    I hope that car wasn't already actually sold.

    I generally avoid any dealer in Glendale.

    Except of course for the Lexus dealer - got a good deal, unless these guys worked there part time.
