Given the fact that he had a camera focused on this spot does that mean other cars had already been through here and done the same thing ! Nines across the board for originality.

Any idea if catastrophe was avoided where the car came to rest ? Hopefully no one was hurt.

The list is endless!

Driving

Driving without due care and attention. - Failure to take into account driving conditions.
Dangerous driving - Mounting a pavement.
Failing to indicate, when crossing lanes.

Criminal

Attempted suicide - driver trying to run himself over.
Attempting to leave the scene of an accident - Both Parties.

Contravention of Health and Safety

Dereliction of duty.


I reckon they will get a 5 - 10 stretch and be out on 3 weeks for good behaviour, knowing our judicial system.

Seems a shame they didn't try to put some effort into trying to stop people driving down that road then just filming the unfortunate party

[hoyin]

wow .. my question though is why are the people filming and not down there telling people not to drive down the road!!

But what a bunch of idiots to jump out of the car!
