Eerie video shows car that raced off Virginia Beach pier underwater – officials unsure if anyone was inside

Eerie new footage shows the car that mysteriously raced off a Virginia Beach pier lying submerged in the Atlantic — and officials still don’t know if anyone was inside.

The shocking incident captured by a passerby Saturday showed the vehicle speeding along the 14th Street Fishing Pier with its brake lights blinking sporadically before flying into the ocean.

It was eventually found upside down 17 feet below the surface, with rough conditions making it impossible for divers to safely recover it or find out if any bodies are inside, authorities said.

Video shot by a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) shows the car rocking with the current in the murky water.

“The ROV couldn’t provide clear images or identifying tags,” the Chesapeake Fire Department wrote in a post with the short clip.
