Well, it made me laugh.

Anyway, upload more videos and stop moaning.

Before or after a prison sentence for dangerous driving?
Be an old dear who is not in the public interest to prosecute, won't go to court.
I know, my FiL was dangerous crashed into multiple cars, police just brought him home each time!

Obviously it's a stty thing to do and I wouldn't condone people going out and doing that. But that video is also quite funny!
Nothing funny about it at all. Causing an accident and leaving the scene.
Causing an accident? It's assault (possibly ABH).
Some prick on a moped tried doing it to me, fortunately the car following was a cyclist and followed him to get his reg number. He got to go on some sort of young offender programme, a bit of community service and paid for me and the OH to go out to the best restaurant in town thumbup

I guess in your world calling someone a nasty word is far worse than actually causing someone you don't know physical harm. I tend towards Sticks and Stones, but hey we're all different.

Sounds awfully like you are condoning it to me and others! The fact you find it funny is EXACTLY that! Most fair minded people condemn it! As I said in my post (Before someone reported it and had it removed as it might cause offence) Imagine that the victim on the bike was someone you liked...

2.20 How the fk does the Jag fkwit think it's not his fault!

Some of the Yanks are quite angry and some of those near misses are tbh a result of too much speed in a silly place. THe South African guys don't seem able to accept apologies either.

I'd love to see a better image of that road, does it exit to two lanes? No excuse but the scooters positioning seemed less than confident than it could have been, he did appear to check his right mirror and then more over a little more? It looks like it could be the usual two idiots meet but can't say as it's hard to see any road markings.

I know, sorry, more videos less chat, but I thought it was probably fair to suggest that laughing at something really isn't condoning it. It's quite amusing when young children use swears perfectly innocently, but I wouldn't condone them swearing generally.
Similarly, it is of course totally unacceptable to push over a cyclist as in that video, but it did get a childish giggle from me. If you'd seen it in Mr Bean or Alan Partridge, it would have been comedy gold. It's not really any less funny because it happened in real life, save for the deeply unfunny reality that it probably hurt and upset our two-wheeled friend quite badly.

Act - amusing
Outcome - not so much.

I don't know why it made me chuckle for a second but I wouldn't condone it, I think it's the sheer stupidity of it.

No, it's not.
That video is about the same as when feral kids drop stones on cars from flyovers.

I agree with you - piss poor driving, but hardly potential for a massive smash causing fatalities etc.

It is one thing to overtake in traffic lights when you can see the road ahead is clear and "you are only taking the next right", its another to do it when there is a car already metres from you. The cam driver was the second one.

No thinking, no planning, no anticipation of what pedestrians may do, cyclists = potential for injuries.

The large gap between the bonnet and headlight seems to indicate prior piss poor driving.
