So much wrong i don't know where to start, what must have been going through the drivers head... Of all the roads to give it the beans on....

The person he hit is completely unharmed thankfully.

Pretty much your worst fear.

2.5 tonnes of metal coming towards you having appeared out of nowhere and absolutely fk all you can do.

Absolutely.

id like to think that if i were in the drivers shoes at that moment in time id've steered into the lamppost/aim for the gap between it and the wall. I'd sooner take my chances with that than involve someone else in what would definitely have felt like a possible fatal.

he was traced by blood on airbag according to that

so nicked ?

He meant he wondered if the car was nicked, no mention of that from what i read he was simply charged with dangerous driving and failure to stop at road traffic collision so presumably was his own. Certainly driving it like he stole it though.

Never said whether the bloke was drunk or not so can't have been. Must have had a very funny turn to floor it through there ?

That's what first struck me, a crash at 80mph anywhere is shocking but the setting of this one is just surreal and asks so many questions as to what was going through the drivers mind at the time, given that he fled the scene and it doesn't say when he was caught i guess intoxication is still a possibility and he had enough time for it to get out of his system. Would be an interesting case to be a juror on.

Could be so many things, if it was him just having a hoon then its a miracle he made it to age 46.

Why not trace his plates? And why was there blood if the airbag popped (perhaps he was wearing glasses though)?

Either way a right mess, 14mths inside and for what?

Presumably to prove he was the driver at the time.

Thanks, I did not know that. Still 14mths is a long time for having an accident. Sentence does seem strong when there had been no injuries.

Obvious troll , that is more than having ''an accident''. The Bentley driver was insanely reckless and definitely driving beyond both his ability and road conditions. It was only a non-fatal because, by the grace of god, the old boy had invested in some of fords modern engineering. In many other older cars he very likely would have been brown bread.
