I thought Mina abusing someone whilst trying to correct them, only to be incorrect himself was a bit rich. Anyway, since we are all correcting each other:
Depending on the context, the proper translation for mach schnell would be "buck up" or "hurry up". The German word for accelerate is beschleunigen.

Schnell means fast. Schneller means faster.

[hoffy]

look, your helmet straight up snells OK, get a new one.

It does mean go quicker or speed up mate. It just isn't the appropriate German word for accelerate.

quoting from the SA Drivers handbook

pillion passenger must wear an
