Rule #1 when you’re driving: Don’t use your phone — especially in an expensive sports car. Popular streamer Jack Doherty found that out the hard way on a recent stream that led to a car crash.

In the incident captured in the middle of a stream, Doherty was driving in a newly purchased McLaren while using his phone. Since he wasn’t paying attention, Doherty lost control of the car, eventually colliding with a rail in an incident that left his cameraman with a couple of bruises.

Not only is Doherty’s car damaged, but it looks like his streaming reputation is in shambles, too. Shortly after the crash, Doherty’s Kick channel was taken down and is currently inaccessible.

This isn’t Doherty’s first brush with Kick bans, though. Back in June, he got into a physical altercation with the streamer N3on which led to his account being banned.

Back in September, Adin Ross’ friend Prime slapped Doherty in a stream, too, seemingly due to a verbal altercation.

Last October, Doherty found himself going viral after a video of his bodyguard punching a man in front of Corinna Kopf was captured on his Kick stream. In the video, an argument between a man, a woman, and his bodyguard is shown that seemingly stemmed from an “apparent snub” from Kopf towards Doherty at the party.

The bodyguard addressed the man that was now arguing with him, with “Watch who you’re talking to, dawg,” before punching him square in the face. As the man got carried away by his friend, Kopf and a woman confronted the bodyguard over the surprise punch, with Kopf asking him, “What is wrong with you? Are you fucking crazy?”

While all of this was happening, Doherty fled the situation.
