Carkour is a form of driving similar to parkour.

It requires a very thorough understanding of your cars limits and innerworkings such as gear timings, acceleration, and aerodynamics.

Elements of carkour include:
- Parking facing outwards, in the spot the shortest distance from your destination.
- Making a series of turns to avoid red lights of excess length (example: right-turn, u-turn, right turn to bypass)
- Choosing the lane of traffic with the least obstructions
- Driving at or above the speed limit, at all costs, including bypassing hazards, and accelerating at a high rate as required.

Carkour can lead to careless driving when practiced improperly at a novice level, however a true carkour master does not endanger any persons safety while executing maneuvers. It is very difficult to argue the case, however, with a law officer, no matter how in-control of a vehicle you are, and thus careless driving infractions are not unlikely. Therefore, it's noted that carkour should only be performed with a vehicle on uncrowded roads under ideal circumstances.
I have recieved 3 careless driving tickets for practicing carkour in my vehicle over the course of 200,000 miles without ever causing an accident.

The act of intentionally using your car to perform stunts or maneuvers involving going off of a designated road or parking lot zone. In many situations, someone may find themselves maneuvering their car over obstacles such as, but not limited to, curbs, center medians, sidewalks, and parking space dividers.

A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
