Apologies if this is a repost but pretty shocking non the less, Astra Estate? Came in extremely hot. lift off oversteer going straight? Pulled the handbrake? No brake lights visible until nearly 90' degrees.

Must have bent a rim and or axle minimum when it hit the curb on the near side?

I expect he is an advanced driver as he didn't use his indicators, probably because he thought there was nobody around to benefit.

Looks like reckless/dangerous driving to me.

I'd imagine it's a red button activation although can't hear it on the video. It's certainly an assistance shout in any case.

In my book he is coming in too quickly, Driver knows it's a pub/drunken disturbance. There are always people in the road when this kind of thing happens and they always get in the way of job cars. Roads are wet and greasy. I have no idea on the location but the video shows it as a fairly sweeping right hand bend for the driver.

Lifted off on the corner causing the no doubt fully loaded back end to step out?

In any case he certainly "styles" it out when he gets out the car. I'd have st my pants and been looking for the nearest facilities!
