U-Turn Fiasco Video Fake? Italian Fiat 500 Driver Staged Viral Video (WATCH)

A video of a man attempting to make a u-turn on a narrow street in Naples, Italy that went viral this week is might be fake according to The Inquisitr.

The video clearly shows a man attempting to make a u-turn only to get stuck in the middle of a busy street. His small Fiat 500 stopped traffic in both directions, causing dozens of people to get out of their vehicles to yell at him to move. The mistake even supposedly stopped a funeral procession.

The main problem most people who have viewed the video on YouTube seem to have is why did someone have their camera phone out as the Fiat was making a u-turn? Thousands of videos are released online of embarrassing or tense moments caused from driving mistakes, but sites like iMotorTimes.com feel this one seemed a little fishy.

Another theory is that the whole thing was produced by a company as an advertisement ploy. The fault in that logic is what company produced it? Fiat most likely wouldn't want to a video released of one of their vehicle's not performing as it should.

According to The Inquisitr, the video bares resemblance to a famous scene from the movie "Austin Powers."

If the man was not paid to make the mistake, hopefully he considers taking a driving course to refresh his u-turning skills.

So what do you think? Is the video real or did the driver or some company set the whole thing up?
