Andre Beadle, a well-known YouTuber and car enthusiast, tragically lost his life in a car accident while street racing.
Known online as “1Stockf30,” Andre was famous for his impressive car customization videos and thrilling driving content. The accident happened while he was driving his customized BMW at high speed on the Nassau Expressway, near JFK Airport in New York.
Andre was racing when he attempted to switch lanes, moving from the left to the right lane. However, he lost control and veered off the road, eventually crashing into a metal light post on the shoulder.
The collision was severe, and first responders arrived quickly, transporting him to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center. Sadly, despite their efforts, Andre was pronounced dead at the hospital.
Shortly after the accident, videos surfaced online showing the moment Andre’s car went off the road, capturing the shock and concern of bystanders as they rushed towards the wrecked vehicle.
Traffic on the expressway slowed significantly as police examined the crash site. One video from CitizenApp recorded officers gathering debris, including a tire, from under a nearby overpass.
Just two weeks before his tragic death, Andre had shared a video with his followers, showcasing the impressive speed of his BMW.
In the clip, the car accelerated from 100 to 150 mph in less than three seconds, with Andre captioning the post, “It’s just a BMW.” He had also uploaded a video only hours before his death, showing himself and friends working on the very car that would be destroyed in the accident.
Andre’s social media accounts quickly filled with messages from heartbroken fans and friends, all mourning the loss of someone who had made a significant impact on the car scene in New York. One fan wrote, “The car scene lost a young King.
You put NYC back on the map in a positive way. You gained the respect of many, and that will live on as your legacy. Rest easy, you will never be forgotten.” Another follower expressed disbelief, writing, “Still can’t believe this, man. The world will miss you, brother, you made a big impact. Peace.”
Andre’s passing has left a void in the car community and among his followers. His legacy as a car influencer and passionate creator will be remembered, and he will be deeply missed.
