The content creator admitted to driving over 110 mph (miles per hour) on a highway for an “extended period of time.” His comments drew criticism from internet users, with many asking Twitch to ban the streamer for his actions.

HasanAbi attended Coachella to watch hip hop trio Kneecap perform live. After returning from the music festival, he told his fans about his experience driving an electric car on a highway, saying:

“The point where I realized on the highway, cause i was flooring it and going over a 100, 110 for an extended period of time unironically just eats the battery, just (makes noise) sucks it up. Bro I literally had like four miles left in the battery and I was four miles away, you know what I mean.”

Twitch has banned content creators for using a phone while driving, breaking traffic rules, and speeding. Some X users called out the streamer for his actions:

“That’s 177km for anyone wondering. That’d get your car towed and licence suspended where i live,” said X user @uniqueaddict.

“Bro, why does everyone need to do stupid s**t in cars to qualify as a Twitch streamer? It's almost as if devoting your life to parasocial cultivation attracts the worst kind of personalities in society...weird,” commented X user @ComradKing.

“Hasan doesn’t care about the lives of others? I’m shocked,” wrote X user @ColeCxle.

Meanwhile, others defended the practice of speeding on a highway:

“Every American should be able to open up the throttle every once in a while,” said X user @PShunglite.

“Eh I dislike the guy but speeding on an open highway as a man should be a legal right,” commented X user @princeofthef4all.

HasanAbi had previously introduced Kneecap to his audience, saying they were “outspoken about a lot of things.” The hip-hop trio is vocal about its support for Palestine, with the members speaking out against the United States military.
