That's shocking. Hope they catch the driver.
(Wonder why the pedestrians didn't look before crossing the street)

[Amirhussain]

Damn! Wiped all 3 of them out, hope the driver gets caught ASAP

[zetec]

Hope they get the bd.

I thought my post duplicated there!!

[Gilhooligan]

fk me that's disgraceful! One of them was still on the bonnet as the car went out of view. No idea how people can live with themselves after doing that.

spooky

[RivieraBlue]

Wow.. How anyone could drive off is insane.

They'll probably get a slap on the wrist when caught..

[JDFR]

Photo of the driver (who they still haven't found six months on).

Really is shocking.

Why doesn't this surprise me?

[vixen1700]

Jeez!

[Fastra]

I wonder if the Police realise that it looks like he'd actually come down a one way street prior to that?

[DouggyMc]

Oh my god.. that was horrific!

[Killer2005]

That's awful

Exactly.

Its funny isn't it, every speed camera and every traffic light camera can take your reg plate, but every CCTV i have ever seen the image is too rubbish to see the reg plate.

Hope this guy gets the shaft tbh

.......innit

[MC Bodge]

Ouch!

but....

The video appears to show 3 blokes walking across a road on a "red man" light, in front of an car with its headlights on that they could presumably see approaching.

-Not really very wise?

Failing to stop isn't excusable, but I wonder what would be made of it in countries more opposed to jay-walking?

I think there are two separate issues.

These guys made a mistake in crossing when the light was red.

The guy driving did not make a mistake when he carried on driving and then appears to swerve from side to side to get the third guy off the car. He's an animal who doesn't deserve to be part of society.
