I have more sympathy for the lorry driver.

I bet his nerves were in tatters for a while after that.

Modern braking / tyres systems really have come a long way.

[VonSenger]

Alert driver combined with modern pedestrian design features at the front of the lorry. Otherwise he'd of been finished.

[DaveH23]

It looks like he tried to turn back when half way across.

I aggree with you there..
but I dont know in which way this terrifies me more least.. as a dad or as a driver

[twocolours]

Fair dos to the driver for paying attention and getting on the brakes as soon as the first boy starts to run across the road - particularly as it doesn't look like somewhere you'd 'expect' a pedestrian to cross.

Im sure many here, if being honest, would admit to having a brain fail moment when they were younger from which they escaped injury by luck rather than judgement.

Idiot, probably. Derserved what he could have got.... no

BRAKE would just say the nasty lorry was speeding.

I have no words which wouldn't be censored to describe what I think of your attitude.

I did very similar when I was 9 yrs old, lucky for me it was a car not a HGV. On the up side I got 6 weeks off school

Looked to me like they were playing "chicken". Whilst I wouldn't wish the cheeky little monkey to be killed, perhaps he'll learn a well deserved lesson

Everyone is someone's son (or daughter!!).

They're acting like bellends, looking like they're playing chicken with a fking HGV. The lad got off extremely lightly and deserved more than a few scuffs.

So was Hitler

At 14 they're old enough to take some responsibility, they should be charged with something for the emotional hardship caused to the driver.
